Decorate & Furnish Your Apartment on a Budget
by Lourdes Dumke

Create a Perfect Living Space Without Breaking the Bank

In an era of super-sized home improvement stores and weekend flea markets, you need only two things to create a beautiful budget-decorated living space-a little elbow grease and How to Decorate & Furnish Your Apartment on a Budget. Now don't let the title fool you-this book is not just for apartments.

This is the ultimate guide to creating a perfectly personalized living space without spending an interior decorator's budget. Whether you're making a minor change or a major overhaul, author Lourdes Dumke offers practical advice and unique ideas that are style-wise yet simple and budget-sensitive. From the rugs on the floor to the fixtures on the ceiling, as well as everywhere in between, this book will give the step-by-step process of creating a home. How to Decorate & Furnish Your Apartment on a Budget includes:

  • Decorating and furnishing hints for every room
  • Unique yet simple ways to unleash creativity
  • Practical ideas for the best places to shop on a budget
  • Common sense suggestions for decorating with already-owned items
  • And much more!

About the Author:
Lourdes Dumke is a lifestyles correspondent and budget-decorating contributing editor for Suite101.com. Ten years ago she and her husband had their first child so she gave up her full-time publishing job-and salary-but still managed to have a beautifully decorated home on a budget. She is constantly working on new low-cost decorating ideas for her home near Atlanta, Georgia.
