This past weekend I went out and snagged a full length floor mirror off craigslist.
It was in really good shape, but being the frugal crusader that I am, I wanted a better deal.
I had this Ikea gift card that wasn’t being used, so I asked if I could swap the mirror for the gift card and cash. Since she just wanted to get rid of the mirror, she happily obliged.
I guess now my place has the illusion of being a little larger than it actually is. Well, I like it.
I’m pretty sure you guys have way better bartering stories than I do.
It’s been a while since I’ve posted any real minimalist design photos.
Pictured above is my little computer(slash)everything desk. I got the white table at ikea on sale for less than $38. The ikea chair was a sweet find on craigslist for $10. And the toy on the table, well let’s not get into that (although I was able to snag a student discount).
Is it too white? Eh, I like it because it forces me to keep the surface area uber-clean.
Minimalistic, yet affordable. The Ikea 365+ bowl, for everyday of the year.
The side table featured at hivemodern costs over 1 grand.
This table of similar proportions costs less than $15 at Ikea.
