Luxe for Less


Would you believe you could take a $79 IKEA dresser and make it look like this?  Well that is exactly what you can do with a great new product called Overlays.  Overlays are fretwork designs that are made of composite material that can easily be applied to a variety of furniture pieces.  Overlays can be used to embellish new IKEA pieces or to "upcycle"an existing piece of furniture or a flea market find.  The results are impressive and the options are endless!




Check out this stylish copy of a classic Dorothy Draper Dresser.  The 1940's original (below) can cost as much as $4,000.  With a little time and effort you too can have the Luxe look for Less!
