I’m a firm believer that nothing can give you bigger bang for your decorating buck than paint and fabric. As a result I’m always on the lookout for inexpensive curtains, pillows, bedding, etc…and I’m constantly painting and re-painting rooms…but I digress.
So imagine my glee (yes, I said “glee”), when I stumbled upon several super cute duvet covers for under $100. Let’s have a look see…
Organic Carved Circles Duvet – F/Q $79
Organic Imperial Duvet – F/Q $79
See what I mean? Happy shopping!
First, I’ll be doing a GIVEAWAY this Friday to celebrate my 50th post. I’ll write more about it during the week, but be sure to stop by Friday for your chance to win!

Remember when I came up with a plan to make a few changes to my master bedroom? Here's a refresher photo.
I already have the nightstands (purchased on clearance at the JC Penney Outlet last year for $49 each), and I have white bedding and a headboard similar to the one pictured above. So basically what I need to focus on is finding accessories to create the right look.
This pillow is by Thomas Paul and it's $100....a little bit much for me (and by a little I mean A LOT!).
I considered this option by Pottery Barn (found on Ebay). It was close to what I wanted, but the blue was a little more bold than I wanted, and I wanted to see if I could do better than $31.99.
And then I stumbled upon some lovely linen damask fabric at Hobby Lobby. It was 30% of it's normal price of $29.99 a yard, and I only need 1/2 yard to make a pillow...so I jumped on it (um, by the way...the lady at the cutting counter at Hobby Lobby may look at you a little funny when you ask for only 1/2 a yard of fancy upholstery fabric...just so you know).
I already had a pillow insert, so the total cost of this pillow? $10. Woo hoo!
I loved this wood tray(?)...vessel(?)...thingy. The one in the picture is from West Elm (no longer available), but I'm guessing it was $20-$30.
I stopped by a garage sale the other day and what did I find?
Oh yeah, wood tray, vessel, thingy. And the price? $4...YES, I said $4!
Finally, I loved this mercury glass candle holder. It was also from West Elm, and I'm not sure what the price was, but I'm guessing $20?
See this mercury looking vase?
The price? $2 on clearance at Hobby Lobby. Score!
I also bought a nice little mercury looking glass ball for $5. Combined with a candle holder I already have they look lovely.
I'll let you know when the bedroom is completely finished, but I'm loving how it's coming together so far.
