- I closed my Eden Fantasys giveaway last night and the winner of the $50 gift card is sarahk. Congrats! Send me your address and we’ll get that right out to you.
- Some of my bloggy buds have started a anon group blog called Behind the Curtain. Ever wonder what “out” bloggers would say if they could keep their identities a secret? Then you should check it out.
- Alexa, the finest plum in all of the land, is hosting a giveaway for a FREE LAPTOP. Yep– you read that right. FREE. LAPTOP. Go enter. Now.
- I am officially taking all recommendations for places to shop for cheap furniture (i’m already on the ikea thing– but if there’s anywhere else) and any decorating blogs y’all love. Etsy sites too! Also, send me your money.
Any updates for me this week?

Oh, and on the topic of cheap furniture, you might want to check out Freecycle in your area. I’ve found some great stuff on there for free…anything from furniture to dishes. You have nothing to lose!

CRAIGSLIST. Seriously — people are eager to get rid of their shit. Tons of students that live around me got great deals on TVs and furniture and appliances and stuff. Check out the “free shit” section or something too. Usually it’s crap but sometimes people are just dying to get things off their hands.

Just look at discount furniture warehouses. They’ll have the same quality of furniture, but often there will be a small scuff or something that gets them marked WAAAAY down!

Milk crates work great as end tables, ottomans, book shelves and – in come cases depending on where, exactly, your apartment is – rat traps.
You’re welcome.
