Bridal Shopping at Homegoods

I gave Lauren a Homegoods giftcard for her wedding, so we went there the week before to see if we could find a really cool lamp to cozy up Philip’s loft.  He has no lamps and all spaces need lamps.

So, we looked and shopped and I think we found the perfect lamp.Of course, we walked around the store to see what other goodies were there. You never know what you’ll find at Homegoods.  It’s my favorite store to shop for new home decor, hands down!Beautiful chunky glass bottles.Springy polka-dots.Occasional chairs and lots of furniture pieces.This pair of chairs caught my eye.With fun silver nailhead details as an accent.Loved this striped chest.And this very cool bookcase/shelf was extra rustic.   See, you just never know what you’ll spot at Homegoods.We checked out the lamp aisles.  This one was a contender for color. So many lamps to see and drool over.  Lamp prices here can’t be beat.Super stylish ruffles on this shade.So many styles to choose fromAnd then I spotted this one! I think it’s perfect for the loft.  It’s chunky and such a pretty blue color.  She texted Philip and it got a thumbs up.Happy Wedding, Lauren and Philip!  This lamp will be a great addition to the loft and help cozy up their new space together.  A few throws and pillows will be added later.

I’ll have plenty of wedding pics to share later on as soon as I can get the time to edit and load them up.  This week is moving week, lots to do.

    This was great and really hit home…while away visiting my son at college, as he was taking his last midterm, I went scouring the nearby neighborhood for a place to hang for an hour..well lo and behold I found a Homegoods…and let me tell you, I was blown away by how much they had and the prices AMAZING. I mean you have to look and dig a bit, but you can find some incredible steals there…lots of look for little money. And its such fun getting a bargain, isnt’ it!

    Wow, so many beautiful things!

    I also like the blue chairs! They look really sharp… well done. Isn’t it great that you can find beautiful things at a good price? I don’t see the purpose of spending too much money when you can find things for less. The pieces you’ve shown here proves that.

    Rhoda, Lauren is such a pretty girl. Love the pics of her showers and shopping for her new home. I wish we had a HomeGoods I could spend a lot of time in there, just eye-buying. Have a good day! Thanks, for sharing with everyone.

    I love the lamp you choice. It’s a beautiful color and so chunky too. I wish we had a homegoods store near us, it looks like a treasure trove.

    Love Home Goods! They are opening one just up the street from us and I can’t wait (within walking distance). Great choice. Love the blue color.

    Dear Friend,
    I have not commented in a while only due to being so stinkin busy at work. You need to know we appreciate the person you are – and evidently the wonderful aunt, sister, and daughter you are as well.
    You are lifted up in prayer for Spirit to surround you with whatever strength you need for the moment. I am one of Beth’s Houston girls, and we strongly believe in prayer and the work of Abba.
    The lamp is just YOU – beautiful you. No doubt it will be treasured for a lifetime. Just like you.
    Sincerely, patti g

    Love how it kind of matches the shirt she’s wearing, blue is beautiful and calming! Can’t wait to see the wedding pics…and of course the “new” home 🙂

    Great lamp choice….a little more manly than the others. I don’t think I could’ve walked by the first lamp with the gorgeous shade….

    Oh how I love Homegoods!!!

    That is a great lamp. Every time someone posts about Homegoods on their blog it upsets me so. We don’t have them here. I feel like I am really missing out. Oh…we have TJ Maxx so I get a small glimpse into what it must be like.
