Okay, so I'm one of "those" that never really got the "hang" of decorating. I never knew what went where and what would look best color-wise....well I'm pleased to announce that I'm getting it everyone!!!
The best part is... I do it on the very tight budget. Here are some of the things that I've done:
1. I bought the "Morris" plaque at Michaels on clearance and painted it myself. I then got stencils for the lettering and: There you go!
Next the picture frames I got at Savers for $2 each and painted them the color I wanted. I then "antiqued" them by sanding down the color and arranged them on the wall in the basement living room. (the pictures are coming...I just haven't developed any yet)
This entire wall cost me about $12!
I just LOVE Quilted Bear. I found this vinyl lettering saying for cheap!!! It helps complete the basement and only cost me $5
This was just way too cute not to get for Carter's room. Each letter was only $1 and I arranged them above his bookshelf that I got at Savers for $4 and painted myself. So my running total for this part was $10!
This is hanging in my dining room and is my FAVORITE!!!! I found these two things at Quilted Bear again and together they were about $19
And last....again this is from the Quilted Bear and I LOVE IT! My sister-in-law almost bought it when we went shopping (it was the last one) but she decided against it...so here you go! This was such a great deal too.....$18
So overall, I think I'm getting better at making my house a home!

What a little homemaker you are Christie! I especially love how the "FAMILY" looks on your cute black shelf!! Decorating is so much fun...I just wished I had the space and money to do more!
