Friday Finds: {Bookshelves Under $300}

Happy Friday!  For today's Friday Finds post, I am sharing some awesome, industrial style shelving units for under $300 (one of them is over $300 normally, but it is on sale so it made the cut!). 

One of the most asked about items in my home is this shelving unit I found at Homegoods a few years ago.  I have searched high and low for it online and *think* I found it. 

Check out number 1 below.  Now, the wood color looks a bit different so I am not totally sure  it is the exact one, but the measurements and the other details are exactly the same.  With that said, it could be the picture that makes the wood color look off or it might actually be a different wood color.  A little sanding and stain could have it look exactly like mine in no time and the price is very reasonable! Each item's direct affiliate link is below the collage!  Just click on the corresponding number/description for the retailer!

My new wire basket!

Happy Saturday! 

I am sure you all know about Decor Steals, right?  If you don't, well now is the time to check them out!  Each day they offer a new item for sale.  They have so many great products up for grabs and it will soon become a website you will want to check daily!

One of my favorite Décor Steals products is this wire basket and it just so happens to be up for grabs today!

What I love most about it is that it can be used in a variety of different ways!  The stand and basket are separate pieces which just adds to the endless possibilities of ways to style it. 

Here are a few ideas I came up with:
1. Use it as a planter on the patio.
2. Use it in the bathroom to hold rolled up towels.
3. Use it in a playroom for toy storage.
4. Add a rustic wood top and use as a side table
5. Use it in a child's room to hold books or stuffed animals.
6. Line it with plastic and use it as a drink holder at an outdoor party.
7. Use it in a bedroom for extra blankets and pillow storage.
8. Use it next to the fireplace to store firewood.

Those are just a few ideas...I am sure you can think of even more!

I have had mine for a few weeks and have used it in a few different ways but lately it has been used as a planter for a fern!  I styled it outdoors on my patio and inside my home in various locations so you could see how versatile it is!

 

The color is the perfect mix of "chippy' blue and aged metal.  While it is not a vintage piece, it has a wonderful patina!

 

 

*Thank you, Decor Steals, for sponsoring this post!*

Thank you L Marie Designs for the fabulous images!  If you are in the Dallas area, I highly recommend her for photography services!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend...I am off to soccer!

Friday Finds: {3 tiered stands and my desk calendar}

Happy Friday....I did not have a post planned for today, but decided to pop in real quick when I came across these goodies!

I get asked a lot about the tiered stands I have in my home.  The ones I have came from Homegoods and Tuesday Morning but I know several of you have searched and searched with no luck.  I did a little searching for you online and came across these!  While the prices are a little higher than what I paid, I still wanted to share them with you incase you just cannot live without them!

 Galvanized 3 Tier Stand (I don't own this one, but I might in the future!)

 

 

And because so many people have asked about my cute little desk calendar...

I found it for you!!

**Note: the original source I posted sold out quickly. They are still available but the price is way more than what I originally linked!  You might check back and see if the original source gets more in for the lower price. **

Happy Shopping!

Break the Bank vs. Cheapskate {Industrial Ladder Shelf]

I have been doing some sourcing for a client's office design board.  She sent me the first photo as an inspiration photo and wondered if I could find something less expensive but with the same look.  Not only did I find one that is a very close match...it is a fraction of the price! 

Break the Bank:
$2895
Link: Shipyard Shelving Unit

Cheapskate:
$599.99
Link: Metal Bookcase

While I am always cautious to order something online that I have never seen in person, World Market has a reputation for quality products so I would feel fine recommending this to my client.  Another helpful hint while shopping online is to check the online reviews!  This particular piece does not have any reviews yet, but it is always good to take time to read them if they are provided!

What do you think? Isn't this a great find!

Frugal Finds Friday

Welcome to Frugal Finds Friday....

Every Friday I will highlight some awesome items that don't break the bank!  This week all my frugal finds were found at one store...one that you might not usually go to for home decor!  I walked into Michael's to get my daughter a few things for Valentine's day and got giddy when I saw what they had....lamps, garden stools, ottomans, accent tables, throw pillows, kitchen decor and even a few mirrors!  I came home with only a few things, but will be going back soon!  The best part....it is all 40% off and  they have a 20% off total purchase coupon on their website!

Look at these goodies!!

Loving these colors!  A few things that caught my eye: decorative measuring spoons, large colored measuring cups, bright colored bottles, and canisters....

 

Can we talk berry baskets again (you know I love these things)?  These were between $3 and $5!! Seriously, you cannot beat that price!  And these colors....they remind me of the Anthropologie version, only these are a fraction of the price!  Notice the adorable market baskets on the bottom shelf...the possibilities are endless for these!

Another Anthro look-a-like...chalkboard labeled jars in several colors! I bought a red lidded one for my daughter's teacher for Valentine's day! Just add her favorite candy and done....super cute and so easy!

 

Can we talk topiaries and garden decor....yep, they have that too!

Look at the accent ottomans, accent tables, throw pillows and garden stools...all 40% off!

 

Well done, Michael's, well done! 

So what did I end up with.....

 

The large and small chalkboard canisters with "mint" colored lids! They look great on my breakfast nook shelves!  I am sure I will go back for more goodies!

Have a great weekend!!
