weekend finds

The search continues for perfect additions to the house, at budget friendly prices.
My latest finds....

Elly Dish Towels - Ikea
$2.49 (4 pack)
I was surprised at the quality of these towels. They are great for cleaning up in the kitchen and the classic patterns look cute on the counter.

Kardemumma Plant Pot - Ikea
$1.99 ea.
I can't get enough of these pots. The price can't be beat & they are made to last.

Ribba Frames - Ikea
$9.99 ea. (mat included)
A crisp clean look for hanging family photos in the hall.

Woolrich Grommet Window Panels - Target
$24.99 pair
The nice textured fabric and grommets make these curtains look a lot more expensive than they are. A steal!

$19.99 pair
I prefer the Woolrich pair above, but we needed a longer length for the living room & these are a good alternative. The fabric is a simple canvas, so nothing too interesting, but they are thick & self-hemming, which gave us the freedom to make them any length.

Metal Rod, Cylinder Finial - West Elm
$29 - $79 ea.
Not exactly a budget find, but totally worth the splurge. I love, love, love these rods! I'm a believer in spending more on hardware and fixtures, which are more permanent additions to the house, and saving on textiles that will need to be replaced or changed more often (especially in a house with cats).
