A walk through Pottery Barn ...
or a trip to Ikea for candles, baskets and frames?
The Ikea shopping bags will be cut up for wrapping paper; the handles will be transferred to my upcycled cereal box gift totes;
and the Pottery Barn bags will get a scrappy look for gift giving.
I like to think of it as shopping with purpose. :)
Hope you are having a great Sunday! Friendship blessings, Tammy

Wonderful photos. Pottery Barn is always full of good inspiration. And you are always so good at repurposing everything. I need to take a lesson from you and use up some of my old bags.
Have a great week.

Hi, Tammy,
You visited three of my favorite stores!! Do you have a Cath Kidston store where you live? Lucky you!! I wish we had one close by here in Texas. I was noticing the picture of your family and saw how tall your boys are getting. They sure grow up quickly, don't they? Thank you for coming by for a visit. It always brightens my day when you do. Have a good week, my friend~ Vicki

I noticed how tall your boys are getting in the family picture in your heading. They sure grow up in a hurry, don't they? Thank you for coming by for a visit. It always brightens my day when you do.

Great idea with the bags..and you love the same stores I do...however, my heart goes pitty-pat with the Cath Kidson line :-)
I was just browsing the new Ikea catalog and I still have a PB gift certificate burning in my pocket! I must get to Pottery Barn!
What a fun shopping trip! I enjoyed going with you and I didn't spend a penny. That's the best kind of shopping for me.
Thanks for stopping by my blog while I was gone camping. It made me so happy to come home and find sweet comments from my friends.

oh my goodness...a sale at Ck...I would of gone crazy nuts.
What a lovely shopping day you had. xoxoxo Happy week
Fun, fun, fun! I have never heard of that first store. I'll have to look that up.
Like your new blog look.
Kuwait is moving up in the world. I KNOW there was not a Pottery Barn there when I was in the country. How wonderful. I have not been in there in years. I am excited, as I found a Japanese store like the one at City Center today. I finally found a spatula and measuring spoons! YEA!! Simple pleasures in life are the best ones!!
Love all your recycling efforts!! Keep it up!
Love,
Renee
You are definately unique. Probally the only person I know that is putting into plans how to recycle the bags you got from your shopping. I can see the ideas churning in your head and the mess that will be left on your table...lol! Glad you enjoyed your time shopping.
I sure couldn't resist a trip to any of those yummy stores! I couldn't afford anything, but at least I could dream. :-)
Have a great Tuesday!
Hugs,
Anne
I just got my Cath Kidston mag in the mail yesterday... it's fabulous! I don't have an Ikea or one of her stores anywhere close by but I do love their catalogs! Your ideas for repurposing are fabulous! Theresa xoxo
