Wal-Mart. Home art.

Hello, hello!

So I thought I would share this great tip with all those "frugal" modern day couples and singles out there, for home decor.  Watch for your Wal-Mart flyers!!  They are always having sales on home decor.  Like area rugs, storage bins, lamps, benches, etc.  Instead of paying over $100.00 for one item.  Get it for less, but only if you pay attention to your Wal-Mart flyers!!  Thank goodness for my mom, the other day she pulled out last weeks flyers; which expire tomorrow.  And I was scrolling through it with her.  And I stumbled upon these must have items for the humble abode! ;)


5' X 8' Area Rug




3 Drawer Storage Cart in PURPLE!!!





For my area rug replacement.  We had to get a new one, due to my clumsiness.  I accidentally spilt my nail polish on our living room area rug...whoops! lol  Can you find my oops in the photo below...? haha




So when I say that Wal-Mart was selling area rugs for under $40.00 I HAD to go check it out.  So the lovely area rug you saw in the above picture.  Replaced this area rug, we had from before.  I decided to go a different way this time, compared to my choice from before.  Because I wanted to create a different feel this time.  The old area rug was a much lighter colour compared to our new replacement area rug.  The new one is more simple.  Where it only has two colours opposed to the old one, where it had a variety of colours.  I'm very happy with our choice. :)

As for the 3 drawer storage cart, I use it to hold ALL my nail polishes and everything nail related!  I LOVE it, because the drawers are nice and deep.  And they are clear, so I can see what's in each drawer without having to open every drawer, and remind myself what each drawer consists of. :D  And it has cute little wheels on the bottom, for easy maneuver.  I think I might just have to go back and buy myself a second one...;)  One issue I have with this though, is that it is plastic. So its not 100% solid, and all my nail polishes are weighing down the drawers in the center...So I think I might have to buy myself second one to help spread out the nail polish weight... D:  Or, I will have to figure out another way to store my nail polish.
