Well, coupons and Overstock.com. I always shop there and use my Overstock coupons. Their clearance section always has very good steals so I make it a point to check that section.

So shopping won’t make you feel guilty, use coupons!

I am not a fan of the chairs (leather!!) but look at the picture frames.

Black and white pictures would look absolutely stunning against a blank white wall. Notice there are pin lights highlighting the pictures too. It is the highlight of the entire room. When I have my own house, it will have beautiful pictures of my kids – promise

These are all so cute! I wonder how one can convert them into teens’ rooms once the kids get older – my son will love this. I also get the concept of having wide open space to play around with (since everything is maximized in a corner).

To be surrounded by books when you are lost in your own world.
Ahhh….bliss.

This Daily System from Pottery Barn.

Got this from Alpha!

I kaboodled this before but forgot about it and when I saw it in Alpha’s blog I knew it would be perfect for the busiest part of the house ~ our dining area. I think this one can be assembled. Im sure we wont be able to afford the LCD TV but a nice family picture can replace that.

Who knows we might even have a little plant nursery! Let’s just hope I have a green thumb!

As you can see I am a big fan of white. Even if it is high maintenance! Ive got a think with high ceilings too and a sunny breakfast nook. I remember having nice breakfast and good conversations in that corner when I was a kid.

This space is very doable with our home. I’m thinking the colors can be replaced with warmer tones and the couch be better looking but everything is perfectly doable. I like the layout of the space. We need a bookshelf like the one on the picture to hold the kids’ and my books altogether.

I’m really trying to be a better homemaker to my family, especially since I stay at home even if I work. My main concern though, to be able to do the things I need and want to do, is to have energy. Being obese can drain a lot of energy so I need to lose weight and build more muscle. I need Spawn supplements for that.

These IKEA Shelves will do wonders:
For decoration:

For organization:

I’m partial to this one since I have the boxes and the rattan boxes are easy to get here (cheap too):

Nice idea:
