First up, I removed the skirts on the chairs to show the legs and give them a bit more updated feel. Getting a little sassy here and showing some leg!
On this Palm Sunday --- a video of hope and joy for every one of us.
We talked about our entryway/foyer light debacle yesterday, but here are some of my favorites that I was considering:
1. Midtown $232
2. Piedmont $149
3. Valencia $84 --- see it in Chris’ home!
4. Antique Copper $160
5. Earling $145
6. Providence $115
7. Orb Chandelier $399 --- see knockoffs here and here!
8. Ashley $126
9. Edison $118
10. Filament $112
I hope this helps in your lighting searches! Do you have an entryway light that you’re drooling over?
I screamed and texted as fast as my little fingers could telling her I could bring cash and come first thing in the morning and made it sound like I was as harmless and kind as a mom could be so that she would trust coming to her house. (do you do that when you are trying to score something on Craigslist?) And I got it!! It seemed like a perfect thing to organize and corral all of those LEGOS.
A whole new world was opened to me when reader Caroline tipped me off to a great resource: used and returned items on Amazon. They are usually brand new or the box has been opened and you can get some steals! And I thought I knew Amazon in and out!
She said in the comments of this post: “Our dining room light was originally over $500 when I found it (and thought I can't live without this light!), but I was able to find a returned one on amazon for around $150. Such a steal!”
So, I kept my eyes peeled for items we still needed needed to purchase. For the master bedroom, I was looking at 2 oval Moen mirrors – they were $65 at home improvement stores and on Amazon. But if you look below you can find “used” ones which for the ones I wanted, meant the box was damaged but the product was fine. Many times, it means the product was returned.
When the boxes came, the mirrors were fine, and were packed inside another larger box with cushion and I was completely happy.
It may take some searching and patience, especially if you want more than one, but it could pay off! Just another little money saving trick to tuck in your home shopping belt --
