HomeGoods is Good for the Home

I went to the local HomeGoods today (which BTW is associated with Marshalls instead of TJMaxx here, weird) and fell in love with so much stuff.  It will definitely be my go to place for most of the home decorating.  Something tells me that the prices aren't as cheap as they could be though.  I think we get suckered in by the "discount" store idea...but is it really at a discount?

I've been saving this image taken from My Favorite And My Best a few months ago:

I love the simplicity with unique pops of shapes and color.  We are putting a tub and pedestal sink in the baby's bathroom so I am using this as my inspiration photo.

AND....I saw this mirror at Homegoods today for $49.99

Not identical, but still conjures up the same feel of whimsy.  I think it would look very cool in a pop of coral or green. I have a metal bin that I plan to stencil a la Jenny at LGN and her monogrammed umbrella stand.  We just have to wait for a name and sex.......4 weeks to go!

Steal This Deal!

I have always loved this style of sink, but never thought it would ever be in my price range.



I recently stumbled upon Katy Elliott's blog and realized that it could be possible!  She linked to this site offering similar versions for a fraction of the cost...um, hello $399 with free shipping!



Thanks Katy!

Don't forget to read the fine print though.  The front legs are made of wood instead of porcelain, hence the cheaper price.  But, I think I could live with that.  Could you?
