Frugal, Fabulous, and Flaunting It! – Young House Love

I love my house (and decorating it on a dime!) I love blogs (and feeling like I “know” the blogger!) I love love LOVE saving money!

If you are a fan of HGTV “Rate My Space”, The Nest, Do It Yourself Magazine, or Real Simple, then you have probably already benefitted from the frugal, creative, modern decorating advice from John & Sherry at Young House Love.  They are a twenty-something couple living in a fifty-something house that they have completely renovated with charming results!

If you are looking for decorating inspiration, they’ve got great advice that won’t break the bank! They call themselves the “Dr. Phil of décor” for readers with decorating dilemmas.  You can actually send them photos of the room you just can’t figure out what to do with that dark outdated room, and they will send you decorating advice and a mood board full of design solutions for just $250. Even if you can’t pay for personalized service there’s loads of great content right on their blog!

Check out their Before and After Portfolio page and see for yourself!  If you fall in love with their décor, you can easily find it (very reasonably priced!) in their Amazon Store!

I love their video home tour and the photos of how they so tastefully decorated their small home with uncluttered charm. So, you’re frugal and want to do it yourself? No problem! Just visit their “How To” page!

It’s just great to see that it is very possible to decorate a small home in a way that radiates hospitality, contemporary taste, is budget friendly for the frugally fabulous decorator!
