This punchy red milk glass vase caught my eye. Although, I think it was the price tag I saw first. Pretty by itself, or with some simple flowers. The frame on the right was also $10 exactly. I remember it was really heavy and solid-feeling and would be a great little piece on a nightstand with a picture or a a little artwork in it. Gah! I wanted it all.
These measuring cups (also $10) were not only colored green, but are made of all natural materials. But considering we already have 2 sets of measuring cups–I put them down. Sllooowwwlly.

STUGA
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

looking for inspiration?
A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]

Great find! I LOVE free stuff as well… good job spending only the free $10, that’s not easy to do!
Shopping is more popular in recent year especially for women. Women want to do more and more shopping and look different to others. Today, online shopping is also so popular and most of the people like it. http://toobby.com/ There is easier not to struggle for any conveyance. But its procedure of getting goods is very complex and more things which required for this purpose like as bank account or credit card number and if not this things then has a PayPal account. The usage of internet is so popular and people like to online shopping without any problem. http://toobby.com/
It’s dangerous for all of us! That is why I must give myself rules. Must!
Thanks for the coupon! It’s dangerous to let me go in there – I spend way too much time and money. Our first piece of furniture for our apartment was actually a trunk from Pier1!
F-U-N!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could get seriously lost for HOURS in a store like that. Someday, my whole house will be furnished in Pier 1, Crate & Barrel, and Pottery Barn. Well, prob not PB because of how outrageous they price things, but still, maybe a few items :-)
This post was well researched and well thought out! That was so nice you not only took a picture of what you bought, and the coupon, but like options for others! How thoughtful!
Too funny! I LOVE a gift card too….it really helps me not pay the bills with the money.
Did someone say pears?!
I am SO good at spending free money, I always wish I could make a living out of it. You should see me with a gift card.
(Rich uncles used to get me gift cards in middle school for christmas and birthdays and I thought it was terribly impersonal. I am an interesting person with lots of well-known interests, I’m not THAT picky you need to get me a gift card. As an adult, I have come to cherish them… as it turns out I’m the only one with my taste, ha!)
