We’re in a recession. People are looking for work, people are looking to save money, people are frustrated, people are worried about the future, people put dreams and projects on hold. Alright I don’t mean to be a downer right after your Thanksgiving vacation….but it’s a reality. But even if you are on a budget and worried, you can’t ignore your home. Looking at a depressing, unfinished home will only make you feel worse!  There are ways to design with style, even during an economic downturn.

So the next personality we’re launching on LiveLikeYou is RECESSIONISTA – a stylish abode on a budget. I’ve sourced products that won’t break the bank, and designed rooms for a fashionable woman. Now to be a true Recessionista I suggest you  first follow these steps:

    I'm so excited you're doing this. It's so hard to rationalize spending money on the house when things are tight. Would love ideas for decorating without guilt.
