The Look for Less


I blogged of my adoration for this fixture HERE and Urban Archaeology sells the gorgeous Boathouse pendant for $690-$950 depending on the finish. Love it. Want it. Just can't afford it.



And the Look for Less version from Pottery Barn Kids for only $69! After visiting our local Pottery Barn outlet I quickly discovered that PBKids is a smart solution for any age group. A good looking alternative that doesn't break the bank.

Smart suggestion! Sometimes I've noticed their curtains and area rugs are also less expensive than even the regular PB

That's a cool find ... doesn't break the budget.

Brilliant!
Check out these too.
Not quite as inexpensive as pottery barn, but not as crazy as UA

Hi!

I tried to find your email address but for some reason I couldn't find it. We just moved to San Antonio from Brooklyn NY. It's been a big culture shock but I was so happy to find your blog! The moving company that moved all of our items had some sort of accident and most of our boxes were ruined including almost all of our furniture! I was wondering if you would be willing to share some good places in the area to shop and maybe the location of the salvage store you went to a few posts down? We have so much to replace and I have no idea where to start! But I think we have similar taste so I'd love any recommendations! Thank you for any help! My email is cstringhamphoto@aol.com

I'm so jealous that we don't get pottery barn in Australia! That light is just gorgeous and I have two boys rooms that that would look fabulous in! Tracey xx
