You hired the building contractors and the work is successfully completed to your standards. Now it’s time to put your personal style stamp on things. The Shabby Chic style is surely a Design Chic favorite. This design element has a sheer romantic elegance and is considered to be ultra posh. You cannot think of Shabby Chic without Rachel Ashwell coming to mind. She has brought this decorating style to the forefront like no other through her appearances on HGTV. If you like the look of this beautiful European vintage style, then you have a few options as to achieving this pristine look. Rachel Ashwell has an official online store at shabbychic.com or enjoy her Simply Shabby Chic collection at Target’
There are other thrifty ways as I mentioned before to achieving this look such as garage sales, thrift, vintage or antique shops. These are great places to look for unique furniture or accessories on a budget. I have also added below a few online links that can be used for key pieces, finishing touches or design ideas.
