If you're like us, you're furniture shopping has been limited to what's cheap on craigslist or available in your parent's garage. One of the great challenges of decorating on a low budget is dealing with mismatched furniture. I've found that the best way to create a sense of cohesiveness is to create a simple color foundation.
When we moved into our apartment, our landlord graciously painted over the beige walls with white. We opted for neutral rugs, and kept most accents and accessories white - with the exception of the occasional fresh bouquet.
If you have one piece in particular that especially struggles to join the crowd, move it a little to the side and give it it's own simple backdrop. You will find that even the most disparate will find their place within the room.
