Hollywood homes on an Oklahoma City budget

There is no need to have Oscars on your mantle or the budget of a blockbuster movie to give your home the “Hollywood look.” You can have the look and feel of Beverly Hills or Malibu home on am Oklahoma City budget. It is fairly easy to do - with a bit of creativity and the help of the economical prices in Oklahoma City.
 
Splashes of Expense - Add splashes of expense throughout your home. Few people can afford Tiffany lamps, but you can pick up one Tiffany vintage lamp at an Oklahoma City antique store at a great prices. Don’t worry about not being able to afford a complete silk living room set. Add one silk chair that coordinates with the furniture you already own. Still out of your budget? Add silk throw pillows for that splash of expense.

Faux Everything - Faux is the way to go when you want your home décor to look as if you have the money of an Oscar-winner. You can dress up faux anything and make it look wonderful at a fraction of the cost. Add rhinestones and faux pearls to window valances, throw pillows and the like. Furniture stores in Oklahoma City have a wide selection of faux leather furnishings that look as good as the real thing. Faux hardwood floors (laminate) can look like real hardwood floors. Oklahoma City home improvement stores will be able to help you pick the flooring best for you.
 
Tasteful not Gaudy - Remember that a true Hollywood home is tasteful and not gaudy. Less is more for room décor, just like those Oscar-winning performances on the big screen. There is no need to go overboard when you are trying to create a Hollywood home on an Oklahoma City budget. Too much of anything will ruin your room décor and make your home look cheap and thrown together.
 
Forget having to have a huge budget to make your home a Hollywood home. You can do it with even the most limited of budgets. With your sense of style and a keen eye for bargains (found easily in Oklahoma City), you could win Oscars for “best home” - if there was such an award.
