Illuminate Your Space: {Industrial Lighting for Every Room}

If you are anything like me, then you are constantly looking for ways to restyle a room without breaking the bank.  One way to refresh a room, while creating instant ambiance, is to add a new lamp. Today, I am teaming up with Kirkland's and am honored to have the opportunity to introduce you to their new Illuminate Collection of industrial lighting!


Glass cloches, metal spheres, wood balusters, iron shades, Edison bulbs...all of my favorite elements in one collection. I was seriously blown away with this collection and the prices can't be beat!

With so many amazing options, I had a hard time deciding which one would be the best fit for my home. I ended up selecting the distressed cream cloche lamps and knew they would be the perfect addition to my master bedroom.  Once I received them, I could not wait to get them styled.  **This one is sold out online but I will post the link when it becomes available again**


Hello, gorgeous!


The distressed cream base adds a vintage feel to these industrial beauties and I love the soft glow of the Edison bulb that came with the lamp!  The glass cloche is the icing on the cake and keeps a very simple, classic look to these lamps.  They couldn't be more perfect for this space!


The lamps add an unexpected, industrial touch to my ornate dresser.  They compliment the dresser without competing with the details....a perfect mix to create an eclectic look!


I feel like this space is now complete! The lamps added just the right glow to make this room feel warm and inviting!

Needless to say I love my new lamps but there is one issue...I need another one!  Just for fun, I had to style the lamp in my living room because I knew it would be the perfect addition to my small, wicker side table...and I was right! 




I guess it is time to pick out another great option from the Illuminate collection for this area! Are you ready to see more of this line?  Head on over to the Kirkland's website and check out the entire collection by clicking HERE!

Break the Bank vs Cheapskate {Scroll Mirror}

It is no secret that Restoration Hardware has some amazing pieces.  I, for one, am always swooning over their mirrors.  I had a client that fell in love with the Mansard mirror but wanted to see if I could find one that mimicked the look for a little less...and that I did!  Check it out!

Break the Bank:
Restoration Hardware
Link: Salvaged Mansard Scroll Mirror
$345
 



Cheapskate:
Kirklands
Link: Distressed Oval Scrollwork Mirror
$79.99 (on sale)


This is a pretty great option for $265 in savings, don't you think so?

Break the Bank vs. Cheapskate {Leather Barstools}

Long time, no chat!  I took the summer off from blogging but have enjoyed keeping up with everyone via Instagram!  I hope you had a great summer!  We enjoyed ours, but it always goes so fast!  Regardless, my girls are back in school and I am excited to get back to work!  

So...let me jump right in and show you some fun finds I came across while sourcing bar stools for a client.  She liked the leather look and she knew she wanted to keep things budget friendly.  Easy enough....here is what I came up with:

Break the Bank:
Link:  Crate and Barrel Lowe Barstool
$299


Cheapskate:
Link: Kirkland's Faux Leather Barstool
$149.99



Another style we considered:

Break the Bank:
Link: Pottery Barn Manchester Barstool
$399


Cheapskate:
Link: Kirkland's Everitt Leather Barstool
$129.99
I just love that Kirkland's has some affordable, yet stylish, options! I think my favorite is the Everitt...I am a sucker for the nailhead trim!

Break the Bank vs. Cheapskate {Arch Window Frame Mirror}

Today we are talking about arched "window" mirrors.  I had a sweet reader contact me asking me to find her a "cheapskate" version of Wisteria's Conservatory Arch Mirror and I think I found her some great options!!  Check it out...

Break the Bank:
Conservatory Arch Mirror
$399
Link

 
 
 
Cheapskate:
Lola Distressed Arch Mirror
$179 (sale $129)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here is another option that is a little higher than the "cheapskate" version, but still a reasonable price for a large mirror!
 
Arch Window Wall Mirror
$215.99  **update: an awesome reader just informed me that this one is on sale for $131.98 now, awesome deal**
 
 
Which one is your favorite?  I really love them all, but for the price difference, I think the 2nd or 3rd would be my picks!
 
Is there an item you love but would like to find it's less expensive twin?  Email me at whimsy.girl@yahoo.com and I will see what I can find!
