When it comes to home decor, I like the freedom to change things out. Unfortunately I do not have a never ending decorating budget! So to make the most of my money when it comes to decorating I try to shop smart.
I think there is often a misconception that you have to spend a lot of money in order to have a pretty furnished house. It has taken me years to get my home to where it is but I am finally at a place where I feel settled in my decor. We no longer need large furniture items so instead I am able to change out smaller items that don't make as big of a dent in our budget to go with current trends. By having a neutral backdrop and timeless furniture pieces, I can change out a vase or framed piece of art at minimal cost while still offering large impact.
One of my favorite places to shop for pretty things at a reduced cost is Ross. I am a huge fan of of their inexpensive home collection. These blue ginger jars are so popular right now but you could easily drop hundreds of dollars on one somewhere else. I cannot quite stomach that large of a purchase for something I cannot promise to love for many years to come. Instead I picked this one up for about $15, the same price as going out to lunch. Adding this one piece makes my whole buffet vignette look so much more upscale just by incorporating one on trend item.
I also love looking for white serving ware at Ross. By investing in all white items for the kitchen and entertaining, I can mix and match pieces that all work well together. This little bread pan gets used as a fruit bowl but also will make a small batch of brownies look pretty. I always try to have my serving pieces act as double duty. They serve a purpose in the kitchen, but are pretty enough to serve in or use in my decor. At just $5, you can't go wrong.
Thanks to Ross, I was invited to check out a new store that recently opened up in Sacramento. The new location is packed with so many new pretty things. They have a little of everything so when I drag my parents and husband to come shop with me, even the men have things to check out!
