Cheap Chic Ideas From Charlie Sheen's House

Filed under: Famous Homes, Celebrity Homes

In ShelterPop's column "Cheap Chic Ideas," we tell you how to decorate your home like celebrities. Here's how to decorate your home like actor Charlie Sheen's house:

The actor may be in home rehab at his Los Angeles estate, but Charlie Sheen's former house in Los Feliz, California is still on the market for $3.5 million. And if this is the way the home looked when he lived here (and not just really good home staging), he's got a flair for eclectic global style worth copying.

Throughout the subdued 1927 home there are touches of faraway lands, like djembe drums in the living space and Buddha figures in the entryway. (We wish that all of the nods to Buddhism would have helped Sheen find a way to channel some inner calm.) While the home is not an over-the-top star pad, it does have its touches of glitz: The dining room is wallpapered in gold damask and furnished with gilded chairs.

Get the look of Sheen's home with these look-alike furnishings:


This grand staircase is surrounded by sunburst mirrors and small figurines of Buddhas: The result is an entrance to the home that feels both calm and worldly.

Get the look:
Handcrafted Brass Buddha Bust (India), $49.50, Overstock.com
Sunburst[TM] Antiqued Gold Wall Mirror, $319, Home Decorators
Gold Plated Sun Ray Mirror, $13, AllCraftsOnline.com

Sheen's dining room is glam in a Wall Street kind of way -- with lots and lots of gold. Create a similar look with a gold, damask wallpaper and an oversized Venetian-style mirror.

Desire: Gold-Mustard Wallpaper, $75, Graham & Brown
Extra Large Horizontal Venetian Mirror, $1,220, The Well Appointed House

While there's no easy way to fake the charm of Sheen's wood-beamed ceilings, you can copy his living room style. A white, shaggy carpet and white, leather seating add up to a sleek looking living space. Add in some touches of warmth with accessories like a pair of African drums.

Flokati Rug, $50 to $200, PBTeen
Djembe Drums, $65 to $78, Overstock.com
