Styling the Nest without Breaking the Bank.

I LOVE to decorate.

I’m completely obsessed with the typical #basicwhitegirl style which is, you guessed it, farmhouse.

The thing is, I don’t live in a farmhouse or even anywhere near a farm.

I live in the suburbs. But I am FROM a small town so I feel like that kind of qualifies me to decorate with a farmhouse style. HA!

If I had all the money in the world, I would spend it on home decor, kids clothes, and workout clothes.

Well, and eyelash extensions. But…that goes without saying.

The problem is, I don’t have ALL the money in the world. More than that, I just don’t love spending a lot of money.

It gives me anxiety and a moody hubs…

So I have had to make AmazonPrime my friend and also my father-in-law who works at auctions! Totally winning for me. He brings me all kinds of fun antique finds.

I have changed this wall below ten different ways from Sunday.

This is my most recent masterpiece. I am sure I will change it again because I get bored with things quickly.

I adore canvas prints.

I think it gives such a classy and bol feel.

Gallery Wall

I purchased ALL of those canvases from Walmart.

I am not a photographer, and because I cannot tell high quality canvas from cheap, I choose cheap.

I bought the “This is us” picture from Jane.

I chose the “This is us” picture because again…#basicwhitegirl.

This next wall is my FAVORITE WALL OF ALL TIME.

I showed my husband a picture of what I wanted and it took him about two days to complete.

I found the sign at Smallwood Home.

I adore ALL of their signs and want them all over my house. They recently came out with the cutest wall scrolls that I absolutely need.

We are about to finish our basement.

I have pinned so many basement pictures of basements done in all shiplap.

Have any of ya’ll done that?

Any tips or tricks would be so welcome! Post them in the comments, please!!

I really like black&white photos. I decided to make a gallery wall of my favorite family pictures in our dining room.

The picture frames are from Walmart and were around $5 a frame.

Unfortunately, since we have two kids five and under, our dining room went from a playroom, to a dining room, back to the play room.

This decor does not match the playroom in any way, shape, or form. But, when we finish the basement all the toys are going downstairs and this will become my dining room for FOREVER.

You need to stop what you’re doing right now and go to Target.

Hearth & Hand Magnolia is on clearance!!!!! Below is what I snagged.

The two large houses above were $12. One of those candles is from Target and was $2.

The other one is from two of my most favorite girls ever.

They make the most amazing smelling candles and they come in the cutest mason jars. Check them out on Instagram @southernscentcandle. They are made from soy and essential oils. They smell heavenly, are long-lasting, have no harsh chemicals, and you can snag one for $12

The greenery was in a box for $5.The blue candle holder was $2. Actually, I don’t know what it is. I’m using it as a candle holder.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy cheap decorating!

… and I was not paid by any of these companies. Wish I was, though! HA!
