fu dog bookends set of...

Guess what made me smile today?  Thumbing through cb2.com and seeing this set of <a href="http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=340&f=4639#">Fu Dog Bookends</a> and the price tag next to them of $49.95 for the pair!  Why does this make the corners of my mouth ascend?  Because a week ago i picked up one of these for $8 at HomeGoods.  Exact same chinese-symbol-of-protection, only mine was a much more appealing pop pink.  I got it as a decor piece for my daughter's room makeover and she loves the added funk factor.  The irony I'm loving is that through this whole remodel project, almost everytime I rang up at the register- SOMETHING was on sale for cheaper than it was marked!  I thought I was getting a deal on her bedding at 25% off- turns out it was 75%- which caused the lady behind me at Target to abandon her next-in-line spot to get some of her own.  Gotta love the deals that just keep on dealing :)

Fall Color Combo: Red,...
  What I love right now is mixing and mismatching prints and textures.  I fully embrace this age in style-era where anything goes, but in my opinion that's easier said than done.  The colors <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/la/inspiration/fall-color-combo-red-yellow-and-green-098612">here</a>, the designs themselves, blend so well- an art I am far from mastering.  But I think if you would ask any interior artiste they would say "don't try so hard."  I also love the painted wrought iron day bed, I'm forever scouring <a href="www.craigslist.org">Craig's</a> for such finds :)
