Decorating on a Dime
Posted by , May 05, 2009 at 4:59am
Even though I’ve shared parts of this story before, I am bringing the subject up again as Design on a Dime approaches to highlight what an amazing resource Housing Works Thrift Shops are,especially when you’re in a pinch to finish a project and have nearly no cash on hand. Such was the case when my agent, Allison Hemming of The Hired Guns, asked me to give her office a last minute re-do to greet some fancy Hollywood producers. Thank goodness she’s on 17th Street, just half a block away from the Chelsea Housing Works. I was looking for wall decor to distract from a somewhat-ugly book cabinet and there in the corner were three examples — already grouped! — perfect for Allison’s office. I think I paid about $40 for all three, and the themes and the colors fit right in.
