Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1401Apr 27, 2011 8:08 pm Great ideas! Would it be too exxy to get a second entertainment unit, so that it is abutter same length as the wall, maybe it would help to bulk out the area, and I do like the idea of the vases as flaggie suggested! Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1402Apr 28, 2011 3:04 pm flagstaffIV Very nice Cooped!! They look great!! Perhaps a collections of vases in different heights, tones, colours etc underneath the TV so the middle section looks more balanced and then group afew on one or two of the shelves????? A fabric canvas would look great above your bed You had me on a vase hunt today and then I got all huffy over all the different sorts and colours and shapes and sizes and I didn't know what went with what LOL I like the fabric canvas idea. I might head to spotlight and see if there is some fabric I like and I could do it myself! Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1403Apr 28, 2011 3:09 pm Hi Tam - now don't you know you never find what you're looking for when you go searching for it - you have to be patient until you see just the right thing. The cheapest canvas frames I came across were in cheap as Chips - much cheaper than Spotlight, but you will need to go there for the fabric of course - good luck with that and let us know what you find!! Do you have a staple gun to attach the fabric?

I like the idea of the 2 units side by side.. but the one we want is quite pricey and we need one a little higher to hide the power points and closed at the front so the kids don't continue to press buttons and damage electricals.

I might head to spotlight and see if there is some fabric I like and I could do it myself! Are you thinkng abstract or something more fluid??? Perhaps it's best to stick to one or two elements. For example... you could do all white vases, perhaps, some frosted, another glass with a white tint and then a clear one with just white pebbles???

Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1407Apr 29, 2011 3:31 pm Thanks Flaggie.. I like the vase ideas. I am going to have to 3M them to the unit when I eventually get some as DD like to run off with 'pretties!' There is a newsagent at Hallet Cove Mclaren that has all those sorts of bits and pieces.. I am going to have to have a loook there I am thinking! Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1408Apr 29, 2011 3:38 pm I have found another 'inspiration' picture but this time for DD's room Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I have also found some furniture that I like (ikea) Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ and this one to be hung above her bed in place of the shelf! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I am however thinking it may even be cheaper to get someone to build it all for me to look identical to the one above. Ikea seems to be getting expensive. Perfect for maybe the little things, but furniture.. wow.. I have to save money to go there! Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves..

Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Lounge room shelves.. Love t 1410Apr 29, 2011 4:07 pm That looks really luscious! Love the pretty furniture, decorating for a girl can be so much fun! I'm a big Ikea queen, but they can be a bit pricey at times. I've already prepped DH with my wish list for new furniture so that it's all in the budget for when we move! I'd buy some now and store it, if we had a spare inch or two here at the moment lol... Cassie 28/7/11 - Slabbed 15/8/11 - Framed 19/9/11 - LOCKED UP! 6/10/11 - Kitchen in! 11/11/11 - It's all OURS!
