Here are some of the best places to go when you are planning to decorate your pad.
1. Linens and Things
You can find bed linens here, often on sale. Curtains, picture frames the basics of living, but at a decent price, and most importantly, things are well made.

2. The supermarket
You read right!! The supermarket. You would be surprised, but in that little aisle where they have little odds and ends for the house, you can sometimes find cute little candle holders for no more the $3!! If you like religious art, go to the ethnic section of the supermarket, and you can buy those cool catholic prayer candles for under $5!!

3. Claires and Icing
These stores are excellent for throw pillows and picture frames and cute little accents like that!! They are very cheap which is nice, because you can afford to replace the stuff whenever you want at $10 a item or less.

4. TJ MAXX
Seriously, this place is amazing. Vases, mirrors, designer clothers...they got it all!! If you find a mirror or a piece of furniture and you find it slightly damaged, talk to the manager..sometimes they let you bargain the price down. I own this gorgeous Dark Oak floor length mirror(makes everyone look super thin). Anyway, it had a slight crack in the post, well the mirror was $80, but I got for $60, because of that crack. Remember it never hurts to ask.

5. Target
I like this store for online shopping. You can really find amazing furniture here!!

6.Online
Online shopping can be a real god sent...just make sure its from a store you trust and can return items if they end up not being what you expect.
