DTT living room challenge
TEP 11: START WITH THE BIG PIECES
Start shopping for pieces you love, starting with the larger pieces first, like the sofa or chairs. As you narrow down each piece, add their price to your budget. Shop around to find the best deals on the items you have selected.
Your deliverable: A detailed shopping list outlining each piece of furniture and accessory you need to purchase. This is the end of the challenge. The next steps are to implement your plan, but that will vary depending on what you are doing. We'd love to see your living room. Tag us on Instagram. Anita is @cedarhillfarmhouse and Kelly is @mysoulfulhome.
