Tapestries!

My buy of the week comes from Target - it's a damask and chandalier patterned tapestry for only $19.99


Chandelier Damask Bedding Tapestry - Purple (90x108") - $19.99

While it's a little more expensive than I prefer to spend on something like this, the pattern was one I couldn't resist. Anyone who has been to my apartment knows IndieAna LOVES damask.

Tapestries are a very versatile and fun way to vamp up a bed, couch, or wall. Just throw it over your comforter, tuck it in the cushions of your love seat like a slipcover, or hang it from your wall with pushpins, and voila! Instant and easy upgrade.

The best part is that it's fairly inexpensive!

Painting a wall is a messy hassle. Couch slipcovers easily run upwards of $100.

I hung my tapesty on my living room wall and it brightened up the drab off-white walls of my small apartment.







do you have any other tapestry ideas or great finds? let us know!
