The Cheater’s Guide to Saving Money on Rugs and How to Pair Rugs with Colorful Walls

This blog post was sponsored by Revival. All opinions are my own. I am a cheapskate and I am a quality snob—particularly when it comes to rugs. Which means, I can’t ever buy them. Or at least, that’s what you’d think. I don’t buy rugs unless...

Small changes over time have made this our favorite room in the house. We’ve been making it pretty (happy for my eyes) and functional (happy to use). One of the best money saving tricks we’ve done was swapping out our light switch for a Diva Smart Dimmer switch from Caséta by Lutron. We had no light switch by the door and instead of cutting into our drywall to run wiring across the room, we used a smart switch that connects to a remote! We mounted the remote by the door to look and act like a light switch and fixed our super annoying, potentially expensive problem in 30 minutes for less than $100. Renovating is exhausting—our favorite method is to do small projects and spread them out. Every little thing makes a difference! @lutronelectronics #LutronAmassador #CasetaSmarterLighting #CasetabyLutron #Sponsored

Two years ago someone recommended the @lightkeeperprotool to fix my half lit strands of Christmas lights. It’s super easy, take any bulb out of the dead section and click the trigger until it lights (up to 30 times). Put the bulb back in. This also works on artificial trees if the bulbs aren’t burnt out. I know it’s science but it feels like magic. #sponsored

We’ve lived with bedsheets and thumbtacks as our curtains for 14 years and finally decided to upgrade to Serena Smart Shades. We picked blackout curtains because we’re delicate little sleepers who like perfect dark. The best most unexpected detail for us is that we can schedule our shades to open and close whenever we want. Ours open 30 minutes before sunrise and close 30 minutes after sunset. This means I get a nice gradual wake up before the harsh reality of my 6:30 alarm. Best perk ever! @lutronelectronics #LutronAmassador #SmarterWithSerena #SerenaSmartShades #Sponsored
