Friday Guest Blog Interview: Thrifty Decor Chick

August 6, 2010 by Morgan

I’m always inspired by today’s guest blog – whether it’s a $3 Goodwill makeover or a handmade mirror, Sarah makes thrifty DIY decor look so easy. Her blog, Thrifty Decor Chick shares everyday finds and the how-to for transforming them into your favorite Pottery Barn or Williams Sonoma look-alikes.

Loving this recent transformation of an old clock into a cloche:

Every post is inspiring! Whether Sarah is redoing an old desk, updating a lamp or putting up molding I love watching her projects and then learning how much she spent. After catching up with her posts each week, I’m always feeling a tad bit too guilty for that recent West Elm splurge when I should have been able to create {with much patience} the same look for just a few dollars {ha! lesson learned}.

So let’s jump out to the interview – and PDB’s four quick design questions – and learn more about Sarah, about her blog and what inspires her. You won’t be disappointed! {For more great Guest Blog Interviews, check out this link.}…

Last Day to Enter Lumnique *Giveaway*

August 6, 2010 by Morgan

On Monday I shared about my new favorite candle company and how it is offering two of it’s custom made candles to a lucky winner. I had the chance to try out Lumnique first hand when they sent over a cider candle – delicious! Thursday night we had a house full of friends for a Cocktails, Appetizers and Board Game night and the long lasting candle was a sweet and cozy addition. {Plus, Lumnique ships in these gorgeous black boxes that are so sturdy I’m pretty sure it deserves a coat of paint and a location on my bookshelf.}

Today’s the last day to enter the giveaway, jump over to Monday’s post to comment.

Favorite Fabric: StaceAge

August 5, 2010 by Morgan

So here’s an online blast from the past with a little bit of everything… but what I’m loving most is their fabric selection!

It’s so retro it’s modern, if you know what I mean. These patterned, damask, deerhead, ikat, floral options are all awesome. I’m pretty sure the Mission Statement of StaceAge sums it up:

With a selection of fabric, furs, leather, trims, rugs and wallpaper to choose from it’s a neat store to just bop around in and browse.
