Major Score!

source

I don't remember where I first laid eyes on this fabric;  I just know that it became a fav immediately! I would really like to use it for curtains in my kitchen, but the $20-$30 per yard price range makes it more that I want to spend. Especially since the background is a soft cream and it doesn't look very "just throw it in the wash" friendly. I've got 2 boys that think fabric is meant to be petted. BUT, I went to Hancocks last week to look at fabric for my dining chairs (still undecided), and saw a bundle of Westminster Aqua/Green fabric folded ever-so-neatly on the remnant table. AND the sign on the table said $3 per yard. I grabbed it quickly and headed to the cutting table to find out how much was there. I knew it wasn't much, and that I was getting it no matter how much was there, but I needed to know.

1.25 yards. I paid a whole $4 (including tax) for 1.25 yards of this fabric. So thank you to whoever didn't by the last 1.25 yards on the bolt so that I could score this fabric for $4.

Z Gallerie $69.99

I just have to figure out where to put it. There is enough to make 2 pillows and they look great in every room in my house. Time will tell. I 'm not ready to commit to a decision just yet. You know, since I have a whole $4 invested.

The Bird Pillow

Have you checked out the throw pillows from Walmart lately? 

I noticed this one the other day and decided that it needed to come home with me. 

Most of them are in the $12-$14 range. Not bad.

I'm working on some changes in the living room, 

as soon as I'm done I'll show you what I've been up to.

I am not being compensated by walmart, just simply passing along a good deal.

Becoming a Fan!

Do you Facebook? Did you know that is good for more than just staying connected with your friends?

I'm sure most of you do, and most of you already know this, but just in case you don't.

There are benefits to becoming fans of some of your favorite stores, restaurants, and online shops.

Examples
The Children's Place - they post about their specials so you always know what's on SALE. It makes it easy to know when to shop and stock up on your kids clothing. Right now their yoga collection is $2.99. Offer ends Monday. There is usually a new item on SALE every week.

Shutterfly and Snapfish - Do you order your prints online? If so become fans and get special coupon codes. I like to wait until they are offering deals to order something.


Other Useful Stuff
Do you want to track how many miles you have walked or ran? Do you want an easy way to keep up with your weight loss? Did you know their is an application on Facebook called Fit-ify? You enter your stuff and it tracks it for you. Just search Fit- ify and it will come up for you.

I'm sure there are tons more, but these are a few that I use. If you know of any other Fabebook Applications that are actually useful I'd love to hear about them.

Girl Bedding for Sale

This bedding was purchase before we were expecting. I fell in love the the Amy Coe Pink Pop collection and new that I wanted to use it if we had a girl, so we snatched it up while it was still available.

Well, we are having a boy (and excited about that), so I'm selling this on eBay. Here is the link if you are interested.

Great Deals on Pillows

I thought I would pass along some great deals that I have found on pillows this week.

Linen Pillows
$8.99
The Company Store

I have also found a seller on eBay (thecherrysan) that has a pretty good selection of pillows and pillow covers. Most of the pillows and covers are usually around $8 with shipping (I'm sure this could change at any time). Not bad at all. Check often as her inventory changes. You can also check her completed listings to get a better idea of what she normally has. I have never bought from this seller, nor do I know this seller, but her feedback is pretty good.
