Weekend Loot and A Fabric Sale Update

This was one of those weekends where everywhere I went, there was something I have been searching for for quite some time.

The biggest purchases of the weekend?

• A chair from HomeGoods – I Instagramed my love for the chair several weeks back. Back then it was $399 and I still thought it was a decent deal {retail was $749}. However, when I stopped in yesterday, it was on clearance for $149. The chair is huge! I was hoping to use it as a cool desk chair, but it feels a little too large and the color clashes with the gray-tone on my desk. It is bluer in life than these pictures make it appear. But I love it. The cushion is down, it has caster feet, killer nailhead details. Perfection.

• Seven glass bottles/vases/vessels from TJ Maxx. Admittedly, this is a bit much. However, I find these look best in groupings and they look great in every room. As I mentioned here, it had been years since I had found any. These ranged in price from $4.99 to $12.99 – I think I got all seven for less than $40 which felt like a total steal!

• A fiddle leaf fig! I asked the local nursery where I purchased this if fiddle leaf figs were safe for cats. The specialist told me it would be fine {but that it could be poisonous if a cat were to literally eat their body weight in leaves}. When I got home, my husband and I did a little more research and there are tons are varying answers. I may have to move it to a non-cat room {although they don’t appear to have any interest in it} until I can find a firm answer. I’m not wanting to take any chances. I would love to hear if any of you have found a definite answer. I haven’t transferred it to the pot until I get an official answer to make it easier to move around at this point.
