I fell in love when I saw this room on Elledecor.com. The pink, the gold, the white, the owl umbrella stand I've been lusting after for some time now.... It's all good in this room. And you just know this room is pricey. See that huge giraffe statue? Yeah...money.

You take a risk with pink on the walls. No doubt. But I say go big or go home. This is a look my friends, so just commit to it.
$92.99
Overstock.com! And it's always $2.95 shipping on your entire order....
A little bit more cartooney than the one in the Elle Decor photo but for under a $100 do you really care?
$199
Target is such a good source for accessories and their website is a great source for funriture they don't carry in store. Over the summer I purchased one of their white ceramic garden stools in store for a clearance price of $19.99 and online they were still over $100. Gotta love human error!
$149.95
Yes, I know. The gold faux bamboo mirror in the original is awesome but it also comes with an awesome $500-ish price tag. $149.95 is much easier for me to swallow and you still get an interesting look. Plus, who wants to outright copy the design anyways?
$149
I've wanted this since April 23rd. Seriously. I printed out the picture and ordering info and have held on to that piece of paper for 6 months without making any advance towards purchasing it. And I should also point out they keep raising the price. It started out at $119. I'm convinced they're doing it to taunt me.
$79.95
I know for a fact that you can get this (or recently used to be able to get this) at Homegoods or Marshalls stores. The exact same lacquer box for less than the above price.
$75
Nope, not the X-Ottoman you were expecting. I couldn't find a 100% match and so I found something else that I love just as much as the "X" shape. Tufting. Would I prefer to see the "X" over the "tuft"? Yes, yes I would.
$79.99
I did find the Capri shell sconce from many different sources but the price tag (a hefty $350+) didn't do anything for me. I know I wouldn't pay $700 for two shell sconces. Shells float my boat but they don't float my boat that much. I did like the idea of a different textured sconce so that's why I chose this one with the fabric shade, crackled glass ball accent, and aged gold finish. Just as lovely as shells.
$95
I went with a different approach here. I saw some interesting Victorian inspired settees on ebay but I wanted to keep this piece simple due to the accent table I'm placing it with. Obviously the chair would need a good coat of glossy black spray paint (yay!) and some new pretty in pink fabric to make it work.
$48.50
Okay, stay with me on this one.... I wasn't able to find the large giraffe statue from the original photo but I wanted to find another odd animal statement piece. Enter in the unicorn or tiger table... Alone these are pretty hideous but with a white spray paint upgrade (Yay! More spray paint!) I really think they could be something special/weird. The "it's so ugly it's cool" aesthetic that I loooooove. If this is too out of the box for you try sticking with the classic white ceramic greyhound you see in a lot of interiors (also found on ebay).

This item can be found anywhere. Garage sales, thrift stores, Goodwill, your grandma's basement, your neighbor's trash. Just hit it again with the white spray paint. Even a shiny gold would work.
