affordable finds: my picks

ahhh...

i had a lot of fun reading the comments from yesterdays post.

thanks for going "shopping" with me.

and yes, i FULLY intend to make "buy this, not that" a series.

it will give me a great excuse to go shopping...tj maxx, pier 1, z gallerie...

no place will be safe from my iphone camera and judgmental ideals!

ha. ha.

but today, i thought i would share some affordable finds 

i rounded up from around cyber space. 

get out your credit cards...

there's some pretty good stuff out there.

marimekko tamara linen twin duvet

39.95

i love this pattern...it's fun and sassy and yet

manages to be minimal and sophisticated at the same time.

perfect for a guest bedroom or teens room.

mateo napkin

1.95

wouldn't this make a beautiful pillow?

the colors are sensational.

(grrr...just found out this is no longer available online...)

grace votive holders

2.39

i love the way candle light looks inside an 

antiqued/mercury glass votive. and, these can be used 

all year long!

velvet linen pillow

14.99

i really love the way orange looks, paired with soft neutrals,

and this pillow has some some amazing texture.

(this pillow wouldn't know a THING about bunions...or taxes)

geo print percale sheets

12.97ea

i adore the geo pattern on these sheets! if they had 

them in king size, they would be on my bed right NOW.

small just tote bag

6.00

at just $6.00, you can afford to buy two.

weathered oak x-back chair

104.00

classic and chic.

and the scale is so small it can be used in virtually

any room of the house. wouldn't it look great in an

entry way, adorned with a fantastic pillow?

casaurina wreath

9.95

i love wreaths made from natural materials,

and you just CANNOT beat this price.

scarf print shower curtain

14.99

 the simple, graphic appeal of this shower

curtain would perk up any bathroom.

(except maybe the bathroom in my rental house,

where it would clash horribly with the sage green

and tan floraly/antique looking stripey leaf things.)

ceramic knob:melon

2.95

a great burst of color for anything with a drawer.

banded shower curtain

21.97

i adore this shower curtain.

it makes me happy.

if it were a skirt, i would wear it.

sculpted flower hook

4.99

adding this hook to a closet, entry or bath is a great way

to add some texture and interest and function!

happy shopping.

again.

hey, i am just doing my part

to help stimulate the economy.
