Etsy: Shows You How To Get The Look

040709-etsy1.jpg Did you know that each week, Etsy recreates a great room that's been featured by our friends at Design Sponge? They take fabulously designed spaces and search out different elements from within it made by Etsy shop owners. It's not a literal translation, but still fantastic inspiration for those of us working within a budget! Click through to see which items you can use to recreate the room above!

 
 

We mentioned this back in November when things first kicked off, but since the ball is now rolling with great gusto, we thought it was worth mentioning it again. We love this weekly feature because it draws attention to sellers and products we might not have been looking for. Searching on Etsy is quick and easy, but sometimes, having someone do the dirty work for you is a blessing! Here's a few of our favorite finds that were featured:

From this look inside Kat Heyes' place, Etsy pointed us in the direction of.....

These great items!

And even if when you search back through past rooms the particular items they featured has been sold out, make sure to click through to the sellers store as they might have a new listing for the same item, or a different listing for a similar item. For instance, the round Tribbile looking fur pillows above are no longer listed, but square versions are. Happy hunting!

Ha. I can tell you how to get the look:

1) Paint everything white.
2) Buy a bunch of all-white spindly furniture.
3) Throw white furs everywhere.
4) Add one coral-colored pillow.

Done. :)

I like the cabinet in the top right photo. Does anyone know where I might find something similar?

The pillows remind me of Gizmo from "Gremlins"...in a very creepy way.

Please change the css stylesheet for your website for weblinks to something else... it is almost impossible to read light/lime green type on white!!!!!!!
