Element Shops: JCPenney
Yes, you read that correctly. JCPenney.
The previously unhip budget retailer known more for stirrup pants and lace cafe curtains has revamped and become a great resource for good design on the cheap. As I preach often, making your home look great does not require a movie star sized budget. In fact, I find it far more gratifying to rise to the challenge and make jaws drop when people find out I found such great things at places like, well, JCPenney! They have long been my secret go-to for great custom window treatments that are light on the wallet- but now have so much more! So here we go…

A fabulous sunburst mirror which would look great above a fireplace.

You’ve seen these in Restoration Hardware for over $200 each….this version will only set you back $79! And this very of-the-moment chandelier also a fraction of the cost of some other home accessory retailers.


A fantastic floor lamp for under $80 (on order for my living room!)

Imagine these chairs reupholstered in a fun modern colored fabric like bamboo lattice or zebra linen. At about $100 per chair, you cannot go wrong! The lines are vintage looking and so gorgeous!

One of the best looking futons I’ve seen in a long time-great in a home office or guest room for the occasional overnight guest!
