So can I call you "Cheap Dior" from now on??? Geez everything is seriously awesome. That lamp I WANT. You really should think about doing this for a living! ;)
Hello Kate~
These are such wonderful ideas, and that lamp! It is amazing! And I love how you used unbound old books for extra height, and they look beautiful that way! You are so good at creating the perfect room. :)
I hope you are doing well and having a wonderful week so far! :)

Kate it's all lovely! and your windmill lamp is beautiful!
Thanks for sharing these great cheap tricks!
Ok...am I the only one that is going to have a few songs stuck in my head today?!!
You found the poof to goodwill? It just came out at Target 3 weeks ago for $80! How do I know the price...cause I love it.
Looks like you got some great finds and new additions. It was so clever to turn the windmill into a lamp. It was the perfect height too.
Love your creativity. Very cool windmill lamp. Thanks for the inspiration. Michele
Absolutely divine...love that lamp!

hi kate, you are sooooo! right!
Its the BLESSINGS above all, and there is no LUCK through him only blessings. You were right there for the perfect taking of that foot stool, its finds like that when we say thank you Lord you are way to good to me!
I just love your modern aged beauty over here and so upscale...Then you tweak it a bit and you then have the best euro South of France feel with all the greys, whites and beauty from the seaside.
I so want to keep this sweet chest but as designers we have to let go and lett someone esles heart sing when they make a purchase for our shop spaces, I am sure you feel where I am coming from :)
Keep inspiring your beauty we love you for it.
Oh my great find today was a bridal vail torn tattered and white, I will use it in a display of vintage romance only $5.00 yay!!!
beauty to you and your weekend.

Wonderful post!

I am never going to get tired of you blog banner, it says it all. You two are adorable. Love your cheap tricks ideas too, thank you for sharing.
I am so happy to have found a Goodwill very close to my house. Ciao for now Rita
I have been eyeing that poof at Target. You are so lucky to have Target overstock at your Goodwills. In my opinion our Goodwill only has cr*p! Really I have never found anything worth buying. I've never found any brand name(that includes target and walmart brands) anything! I really need to make the drive into the city and visit the Goodwill there. I have been adding more rustics and dark woods. We are planning on replacing our old white farmhouse table with a large, long dark wood contemporary table before the holidays. It will change the look of the room but I am looking forward to it...and so are my growing kids who have bugging me to get it.
I am starting to learn so much about you :). All great ideas and here in Atlanta I only have occasionally been lucky. I think there are way too many thrifters!!
I would fill the locker basket with birthday cards, and christmas cards given to me.
