Friday Five

Two posts in one day?!  Yep, it's true.  I'm feeling linky!
Today I'm linking up with my girl Julie for her new series called Friday Five!  Julie is my first internet friend and I'm so happy she's back to blogging.  Each Friday Julie shares 5 things that she loves.  This week it's 5 things you'd buy if you had an extra $100 laying around!  So, since I'm on a self induced shopping band, here's what I'm window shopping for.
Hot Tools Ceramic Curling Iron
No this bad boy isn't $100 but I need a new one, badly.  I used my mother-in-laws when we stayed with them when our power was out and it was awesome!!  I need it in my life.  The 1.5" one, please.
Throw pillows for the living room
I love these.  Like more than love.  I've been eyeing them for months.  They would tie in the colors from my kitchen/dining room so lovely. Also they allow me to get rid of the hideous ones I have and make the openness of my main living space much more appealing. Again, they are not $100, but they are  $30 and that's too much for one pillow in my one income family book.  So I'll be keeping my eye out for a good sale.
Rug for the dining area

OK so this is out of stock so I'm not exactly sure of the price here BUT since I skimped on the first two I figure it's ok to splurge here. Wouldn't this tie in with those pillows just lovely?  I thought so too.
Curtains for the master bedroom
Since the furniture is obviously over $100 the other main piece we need is curtains.  Right now we are rocking 1970s vertical blinds on the sliding glass door and a pathetic excuse for a Roman shade on the window.  Clearly anything would be an upgrade but I think something subtle like these linen ones would be nice and ties in with the bedding I got very nicely.
Big girl bedding
This is the set I want for Kendall's big girl room.  I'm in no way ready for the big girl bed but I'm so ready for the big girl bedding!  I've already changed out the artwork in her room to match this.  Maybe this could be her Christmas present.  I hope it doesn't sell out!

Now head on over and pay Julie a visit and show us what you are window shopping for!

  5. I'm on a self induced shopping freeze, as well. How painful is it? I'm feeling the heat and it's only been a week. haha.

    PS. Can we talk about why rugs are so expensive? We need a new rug so bad but I can't even fathom some of the price tags! ack!

  10. LOVE that rug! We have something very similar to that big girl bedding in G's room- It is from Target and it's more focused on owls. Super cute!

  12. My daughter has that bedding. I got it for her when she went into a twin at 2.5. She loves it - and still uses it at 4!
