My crazy fb marketplace find
I found this massive coffee table on facebook marketplace and seriously scored big. Only $50 for this beauty!

We needed two strong guys to live the authentic marble slab. The metal base wasn't originally black, it was a tacky silver that was starting to rust.
So I got out an electric sander, sanded it down in 20 min and spray painted it black and became the focal point in this Airbnb living room.

These velvet curtains are so beautiful and also very affordable on amazon!
To make your curtains look designer, buy these black rings on amazon.
Rather than threading the curtains right onto your curtain rod, you can clip these rings onto the curtains a few inches apart. They're $8 on amazon and the easiest way to elevate your curtains!
