Inspiration can be found just about anywhere... I find it in great blogs, Vision Boards, My latest is Pintrest... I like to save some pictures and then find those beautiful things on a dime. I have never gone wrong...and it is a little blessing because I always find what I am looking for at a fraction of the cost (which thrills me ) ... Take a look at some of my inspiration pics that I pinned on pintrest.. (I print the picture and then look for it )......It gives me the HAPPY DANCE when i find that same thing or near same thing ..............on a dime !!!!!!
I found the picture above on pintrest........... I love the feel of these blankets.. BUT .. I dont think i would love how it would FEEL taking that extra money from my family ...When it's a luxury item... YOU know a WANT ..NOT A NEED !!!!!!! ...SO OFF TO FIND MY COZIES...BELOW LOOK WHAT I FOUND ..................
Now mind you this is not all the cozy blankets I picked up .. but none of these ran over $5.00 and one had a $96.00 tag on it .. Happy Dance !!!!!!!!!!! ... SO I think my inspriation pic was worth it ...
I think my blankets look pretty good ............. The pic above was another pic that I carried ... Made me happy to find the blankets... Took a month ...but what I found was ... In the summer people let the blankets go Cheap...They sale them in shops, stores mark them 70% off etc... It is a great time to hunt for the fall and WINTER cozies... That is what I call them ............ My cozies
I saw this old rugged bench and blanket and just fell in love with it on pintrest... well look below and see the bench I found on the side of the road ... FREE 90 FREE ...That is what I call it and see if you think its worth the find...................... SO fun !!!!!
This is my free bench and some cozies that I found too ! Not to mention that fabulous basket ... Just $2.00 .... Gotta love it !!!!!!!!! .. Hope this is inspiration to show that you can Design on a budget !!! Have a blessed week... Thanks for blogging with me ............ God Bless YOU !!!!
