Okay so today I went to Michael's and found some cute stuff for our kitchen! Then this evening Jacob and I went to HomeGoods and found more cool stuff! Check out what we found!
A couple of posts ago, I talked about wanting pillar candleholders from Home Goods. I actually found some similar ones from Pottery Barn but they were $59. That's a whole lotta bones if you ask me! So I went back to HomeGoods and bought my $12.99 and $9.99 white pillar candleholders! Aren't they awesome??
I saw these super cute mini lanterns online at Pottery Barn...
Regular price: $10, special sale price: $8.
...But Michael's had them for only $2.99 each! ...So I bought three!
We placed the mini lanterns next to our Sacred Grove picture on one of the corners of the kitchen. Here is the action shot! They look cream in this picture... but they're white :)
I like to tear out pages from magazines and catalogs and keep them in plastic sheets in a binder for inspiration! I call it the ultimate magazine! It's way cooler to have rather than a bunch of magazines with post-its sticking out and messy pages-- very unorganized! I love my ultimate magazine. I even categorized it by interior, exterior, decorative accesories, and holiday ideas!
This white pitcher is cute... $19.99 from Ikea.
...But check out what I bought for $9.99 from Michaels! A TIN pitcher!
There's my tin pitcher on the right next to the fake book clock!
And here is the pitcher action shot next to the clock Jacob gave me! Haha
So I really like green plants in white vases/pots... I don't want real plants since I know I'd be a bad Mama plant who doesn't care for her baby plants, so I bought a couple of fake ones!
This fake grass was only $4.99 from Michaels. The original pot color was dirt brown... which I didn't like at all, so I painted it Wicker White!
More fake grass... I like fake grass, lol. I bought this on from HomeGoods for only $5.99
Fake grass action shots!
I saw these cool colored tumblers. I was thinking I wouldn't actually use these for drinking- I prefer clear tumblers... But I'd love to have these near a window or in a well-lit spot. They are $11.96 from Cost Plus (World Market).
But at Michael's, I bought a similar one for only $3.99! This one isn't actually a tumbler... but it doesn't matter since I'm not planning on using it as drinkware! I'm going to use it as a toothbrush holder! Pretty cute :)
Jacob has been wanting some decoration for our back patio when we build a pergola. We like the nautical-themed decor and he couldn't take his eyes of these paddles so we bought them for $24 each! We plan on hanging them in the back yard against the wall, but we won't do this until we have that awning put up

Oh my gosh. I ADORED this post. Everyting is beautiful and artsy and so well displayed and photographed. Dang, girl. You are talented!!!! And ORGANIZED. I drove through your city the other day and got excited knowing that we're neighbors. Emmy and I will have to drop by sometime and bring you a housewarming gift. But NOT a real plant.

Thank you! I had fun writing this post! I'm bummed that I had to use my iphone camera-- it just doesn't take awesome pictures like a normal digi cam!
oh and I would love it if you and Emmy came over! by the way, do you live in Temecula, too?? I don't know if you'll see this reply, so I guess I'll just talk to you on facebook!! ha
