We just cannot get enough of prices can we?


1. I got that urn about 6 years ago at Target for $39. The sticks are from Hobby Lobby and my aunt gave them to me after I used them in her son’s wedding. Score! The white table was a $5 Goodwill find.


2. The 4 shutters are from Value Village, another local thrift store. Yes, they are working plantation shutters. I painted them the same color as the armiore, Sherwin Williams Halcyon Green 6213–it’s the same can of paint that was color matched in BEHR with primer. The color looks much richer/darker/greener and greyer in this room and on these shutters. Remember, colors read differently in every room.

I hung an iron plate hanger with a nail in the space between the shutters. I think it was from Old Time Pottery and an oval white platter that came with a set. Total for all of it was about $7.


The light, which I don’t have a close up of, was hanging in my sister’s bathroom when they bought their house. The people before them had done up the house in entirely too much Chinese stuff so they had to remove all sorts of stuff. This bamboo style fixture was one of them and I snatched it up, cleaned it up, let it sit on the floor of our last house for a year, and now my husband hung it here. FREE.


4. The sofa is a fake slipcover find from Value City Furniture from 5 years ago. It was a good buy at $499. We don’t sit on it much but it’s quite versatile, could go in our bedroom or the playroom if needed but I love it in our little dining room turned sitting room.


The pillows were all 30 Minute Makeovers from old pillows I had.

5. The coffee table, seen here in the old house, I miss that room. The table is from World Market for about $200. My boys have played every game imaginable on it.


And on top I used an outdoor iron topiary form just for looks. $20 I remember not where I found it.

Now it’s your turn! Finally…
