Update - get the look modern bohemiam

Was just admiring this image over on Belle Maison & realised it was the side veiw of my modern bohemian living room from Monday! So lets get a bit more of this look!

For the dining table look take one Ikea Liatorp table $429

And some black Panton chairs from Matt Blatt

($265 for the premium version or about $100 for the 'non premium one' )

Add some pale blue curtains & a chandleier...maybe something picked up at a garage sale or one of these from Beacon Lighting!

The Ballet $149 (my personal fav)

The Excel $299

The Bern $189

Add some hrdrangeas in a ginger jar to the table & were done!

Get the look - Modern Bohemian on a budget!

Happy Monday All! Hope your weekend was good - i had a fairly relaxing one as id written it off to recover from the trip to the dentist on friday but seem to have recovered well (i thought id be in a world of pain but no....maybe thats why this guy is so expensive??) In any case int involved not doing much at all as i wasnt allowed to drive!

Saw this 'modern boho' living room a few weeks ago & thought id do a round-up of items that could make this look for you!

Take one french style lounge from Complete Pad

Or this 'Chinoisere' daybed from La Maison would work well too!

La Maison $1990

+ Persisk rug from IKEA $449

+ some Ruby Star traders cushions from complete pad

+ Ikea trollstra side table $149

& maybe a ruby star traders ottoman or 2 for good measure!

Add a pair of White bookshelves

Malval Buffet & hutch from La Maison & then simply add a pair of Arstid wall lights to the inside of each from Ikea -which are a total bargain at only $35 each & have a gorgeous pleated shade!
