There are several different places that offer a wonderful assortment of inexpensive and unique rustic decor. I love to visit thrift stores whenever I can since their salespeople often will have a wide range of gently used items that they are eager to unload. You can also check out Craigslist as well.

So one way that you can add a little bit of elegance to your home is by having a beautiful view like a large picture window or even a large picture window over the dining room table.
Here are few more tips for those who want to live in less stuffy environments. Try to use less fancy lighting fixtures. Get rid of candles if you still have them or put them on lampshades instead. Get rid of rugs that are too large. Try to install motion sensor lights instead of using bulbs with higher wattage. These are just few ideas that you can apply to your cozy minimalism living space.
