Contemporary Chic Dining Room- Wonderful for less Wednesdays

Our inspiration room this week is a contemporary chic Dining Room by designer Jennifer Jones from Niche Interiors in San Francisco, CA.  I love how the color really is the power of this this room, and the clean lines and mix of rustic finishes add a touch of elegance. 

Here is our version of this dining room:

Dining Chair- Amazon $89 (Free Shipping)

Dining Table- West Elm $499-599 (splurge)

Paint- Sherwin Williams Fireweed

Fabric- $10-12 per yard

There is a great DIY tutorial on how you can make your own drum chandelier at Thrifty Decor Chick.  A very frugal alternative to an expensive chandelier.

 If you livc near an Ikea they have a great light kit as well.

There you have it contemporary chic for under $1000.

Eclectic Living Room

HGTV's Emily Henderson did this eclectic living room with a bold yet sophisticated sofa, rustic coffee table, and mid- century accent pieces.  I love the random mix of furnishings.

Emily Henderson's Blog

If you are looking to do a room like this I recommend to mix some vintage finds with some new pieces.  The beauty of this room is you can probably find most of these pieces used.  To start...find yourself a vintage sofa.  Something bright and colorful.  For example the sofa below sold on Ebay for $160.00

Then add some pillows this one from Amazon might be fun.

Here is a great chair from Urban Outfitters for $329

Here's a great barn wood coffee table that would be great stained darker to get Emily's look.  You can't beat it for $235.00

Here's an awesome lamp  for $89.00

and another cool lampHere's a great little mid century side table  for only $55.00

and a black rattan ottoman

With some sprucing up these could be great tables and for $50 bucks, not bad.

So there you have it.  My version of Emily Hendersons eclectic Living Room.  Hope you enjoyed.
