For the past couple of days, I have been all over the place trying to finish up my Nicholas House room. You can read more about that project here and here. I have been looking primarily for pillows, but who can resist a little look see at what else my local shops have to offer. That’s where I came across these lanterns at Homegoods. They ranged in price from $19.99 to $29.99. What a deal, right? Especially when I remembered back to my last Pottery Barn catalog…

Homegoods lanterns
I know they’re not identical to the ones from Homegoods, but for the price… the PB ones range from $19.50 to $49.50 and the Homegoods lanterns are larger.
Another example from Homegoods. I was very impressed with the quality of the lantern on the far left. Price range $19.99 to $39.99.
These from PB are so very pretty, but range in price from $39 to $149! Head on over to your local Homegoods store and take advantage of a serious bargain.
I bought these orange pillows for my Nicholas House room. (I promise there is a post about the design this week!) These were at World Market for $12.99 and came in several different colors.
These from Pottery Barn are $29 for the pillow cover and $12.99 for the insert. Big difference, huh? Don’t get me wrong, I love Pottery Barn, but why not take inspiration from PB and get more bang for your buck somewhere else…
These were also at World Market and I just loved them, so I snapped a couple of pics.
Finally, this mirror at Homegoods and one of the dumbest things I’ve done in a while. When I first saw this mirror, there was no tag on it and the salesperson came over and told me it was probably around $40. Instead of just grabbing it and running to the checkout. I kept looking through the other mirrors thinking I’ll find one with a tag. What I found was an empty box and the salesperson says it probably came from there. Problem was the box said $79, not $40… Why couldn’t I just stop looking? I would have this mirror in its new home right now instead of remembering it so fondly as it still sits in the store. Oh well, next time…
