A client needed a “space-lift” for his office. We needed new waiting room chairs, art and something to hold their office supplies. The budget was small. Actually I LOVE hearing that. A small budget equals large creativity possibilities.
The “hunt” was on. We scowered the Flea Markets, Consignment stores, big retailers and a few garage sales.
We found an old Radiator ($10) an Isaac Mizrahi placemat($1.37) and ordered great new leather chairs.
You, like me, have probably faced a radiator that needed a redesign. The challenge is to blend them into a space and to re-make their image into something beautiful rather than utilitarian.
We put the Isaac Mizrahi placemat into an old frame. We then hot glued that frame on top of a long wooden empty rectangel frame and hung it between two Ansel Adams prints for their conference room.
Do you like to hear “Tight budget” I do. We would love to hear about your amazing transformations of Trash To Treasure!
