Join me for a budgetfriendly transformation of a boring area off my kitchen in a traditional English library/dark academia aesthetic. Watch as I turn a dull and drab space into a cozy and inviting reading haven with some simple and affordable upgrades. After painting the bookcases (in an unexpected color), I add budget friendly thrift store furniture and decor to take it to the next level. The before and after is amazing! I share some thrift store finds and simple DIY projects. I also show you how I decorated the bookcases and share a decorating hack that may just change how you decorate forever! Get inspired and ready to revamp your own reading room with a touch of style and comfort. Don't miss out on this exciting and costeffective makeover!
