Looking for Shabby chic online resources...

RyAnsMoMMy123

I am looking to go shabby chic (on a budget) in my new master bedroom and have a really hard time finding anything other than at target that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.  I don't have much time to go antiquing, so if you have any great online resources that you would share I would greatly appreciate it!! TIA!!

Oh, I'm also not opposed to refinishing anything if that helps.

Have you checked Craigslist? I have a friend who is obsessed with shabby chic style and she's always digging up chair frames and bed frames from garage sales, craigslist ads (some post pictures which cuts down on time spent running around looking), etc and either refinishing them, re-upholstering them or re-painting them.

This is another good blog if it's inspiration you need: http://www.shabbychic.guru/shabby-chic-bedding/ (the post is titled bedding but it has loads of gorgeous pictures of really beautiful shabby chic bedrooms). Lots of 'makes' on that site too if your budget is really tight and you want to make most of the stuff yourself rather than buying it in.
