This week I'm obsessed with... Lowe's summer patio accessories... on my dressing table!

While wandering through the Lowe's patio section the other day looking for new new chairs I found something I wasn't expecting to find - accessories perfect for serving drinks and dressing table organization - now I can tote cocktails and in the off-season, neatly and easily keep all my perfumes together in one place! Only problem now is to decide which look to go with...

Cool and modern ... Black & White Photo-Real Marble Tray - $39.99

Warm and exotic... Copper Hammered Tray - $39.99

Sleek and stylish... Gold & White Tray - $39.99

Available now at Lowe's stores across Canada.

This week I'm obsessed with... Lowe's holiday decor!

I admit it, I'm a last minute decorator at the best of times - but honestly, until we got snow a couple of days ago I was having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that Christmas is only a couple of weeks away!

Normally I would now give up on the idea of holiday decor assuming that I won't be able to find anything nice in the stores at this late date - that is until I walked into Lowe's last night and found a winter wonderland!

Their decor comes in a bunch of different themes from rustic to elegant and I especially love this cool frosted look so I picked up:

Silver Striated Glass Ornaments - $5.99 - $6.99

30" Lighted Frosted Wreath - $49.99

  Crackled Glass Double-Wick Candles - in silver and blue - $9.99

Available now at Lowe's stores across Canada.

This week I'm obsessed with... Lowe's patio throw pillows!

Now that the spring weather seems to be around to stay I have been taking a good look at my outdoor spaces and realize that they just look sad and need some serious perking up. Since I'm still waiting for that big lottery win, it also needs to be done on a budget - a few new throw pillows should do the job so off I went looking at all of my usual decorative haunts - Pier One, Home Sense, The Bay - I was horrified at the prices and not that impressed with the styles either!

While debating the crazy idea of taking up sewing and making my own, I happened on the Lowe's Patio Collection lookbook - where along with all the really comfy looking patio furniture (first on my list after that lottery win) they also feature all kinds of outdoor accessories including a multitude of vibrant pillows, just what I was looking for! Of course I have learned my lesson (thanks a lot Wayfair.ca) about expecting things in catalogues to look the same in person so I went to my closest Lowe's store to check them out and in this case, they are just as nice IRL so win!

Best of all, they won't break the bank - the pillows range in the $20-$30 range with deals to be found (right now there is a BOGO 50% sale that ends today so hurry up).

Score your own at your local Lowe's store or online at lowes.ca.
