Perfect Timing



So this may seem like an awkward picture, but it has an AMAZING story.  I went to our Walmart which is expanding to a Super Walmart.  They happen to be putting a LOT on clearance.  So I wandered through the isle not finding much, but found Faux Wood 2" Blinds on MAJOR clearance for $2 & $3!!!!  That was it!!  They were regularly $35-$50.  What a STEAL!  I grabbed all that there were, and they happen to work in our house.  I just took them to Home Depot, who shortens the width of the blinds for FREE, then had to shorten the length myself at home . . . and VIOLA!  It's a beautiful thing!  I went back and they had a few more for $10, but now my living room is almost complete (with exception to the triangle windows up high), my TV room, and Owen's bedroom.  I bought $350 worth for $60.  AMAZING isn't it!  They look SO much better than the cheep PINK and ROYAL BLUE metal blinds that were there before.  I'm very excited at the new look!  {Now to get rid of that awful pink paint!}

Side Note:  The girls gave me those pretty Orchids for my birthday!  I've become a cRaZy gardener that Googles everything to see how to baby it.  Love it!!
