Budget Friendly Decorating

Saving money is always on my mind when I am decorating our home and I want to share a couple of my tricks with you.

First....table runners can be pretty expensive...about  $30 and up.   I have a pretty budget friendly table runner on my Easter table in the photo above....

It's a pretty pink scarf that I bought  at an accessory store for $12.99.    Not only can I wear it,  it will do double duty as a home accessory.

The next thing I wanted to show you is the framed black board  on the table in the corner of the dining room....

I've seen these black boards get pretty pricey...

My framed black board is actually a gift bag that I bought for $2.49.   I taped it to the back of my frame or you could staple it as well.    When I get tired of it that way....I can still use it as a pretty bag for a gift.

I know you've all seen these cute ceramic bunnies at yard sales for less than a dollar.    I made a vignette on my Easter table with a couple of bunny baskets....some cute paper napkins....and a ceramic cake that I purchased at a yard sale for a few dollars.    
I hope that I have inspired you to have fun decorating your home on a budget !
