When you don’t have much, make the most of what you have . I turned the folding tables that we used for work into our coffee and dining tables on weekends. We hung our sample piñatas and lanterns from the ceiling like decorative chandeliers because they were too huge to store anywhere else. I made a tassel wall to decorate the space behind the TV and then wheeled the TV stand out of the way for product shots. And I covered the kitchen and surfaces with washi tape because it’s what I had on hand. It was colorful and temporary and I was tired of looking at the black and beige kitchen. Running a fully staffed design studio and party decor business out of my old, one room, apartment was stressful to say the least… but it was home. We didn’t have much to spend on decor, but we used what we had, and it was our favorite place we’d ever lived.
