Decorating With Sense

How do we keep our homes cozy, warm and stylish without going into debt by attempting to stockpile this and that? There are a few sites out there, I’m always searching for more, that can help, by offering creative ideas to keep our homes the places where we enjoy being and can’t wait to get back to.

What kinds of decorating skills do you have? It can be a challenge to keep a home stylish with limited funding, but I like to rise to the occasion.

My budget is extreme, so I have an eclectic cadre of items that were given, discovered at vintage stores, and stolen (just kidding) — wanted to see if you were paying attention. But stolen for a few cents on the dollar price-wise from import, discount and dollar stores.

I don’t like too many do-dads. That’s just more stuff to dust. So check out my list of design sources:
