Kitchen
We got this kitchen table for our breakfast nook area from Bob’s and I am obsessed with it. The color is beautiful and it’s extremely sturdy which is a bonus if you have little kids who inevitably make messes. For the price ($350-500) range, it was 1...
Gray Round Dining Table & Chairs | Bob's Discount Furniture
Our kitchen has a peninsula countertop which I quickly learned cannot substitute an island. I found this rollable island cart on Amazon and it’s a game changer. Way cheaper alternative to putting in a real island and sometimes I forget it’s not a rea...

Arched 5-Tier Bookshelf with Doors

This classic vanity from Lowe’s is only $150 and transformed our first floor bathroom drastically (before pic at the end). Such a cost friendly option if you’re yearning to update on a budget.

This is my downstairs bathroom after we replaced it with the old light fixture above the mirror. There’s something about this light fixture that I love the look of - it’s affordable and nickel which is my favorite !

Every play room needs one. I like this one because it’s sturdy, neutral colored and has a shelf to hold books! It’s on prime sale right now for around $100.

Besides a crib + bassinet I had no furniture for my one year old’s nursery when we first moved in. I needed something quick and easy that wouldn’t cost a fortune. This lovely white dresser was only $100 (it’s on sale for 90 rn) and it was super easy ...
6 Drawer 50” Wide White Dresser
I should just make a whole separate list on kid / nursery room decor because I loveee both my kids rooms and all the details. I made my son’s nursery nautical theme and I found this Anchor rug on Amazon for a reasonable price. It’s super soft and thi...
SAFAVIEH Kids Anchor Rug
This quilt and crib sheet goes perfectly with the nautical theme in my son’s nursery. The quilt could probably be a little warmer/cozy but otherwise we love it.
