It's so funny. Tonight after the kids were in bed my kitty and I curled up in the living room with a book.... and as I looked around my space it dawned on me! I'm living in the homesense comercial.... you know... the one where the lady is setting the table and as she looks around her room the price for each item pops up on the screan. Yup, that's me! I can't believe how much of my home decor was bought there, right from my blue louis chairs to my napolean side table, all of my candlholders, vases, bakeware,wineglasses,frames,seashells... anyways you get the idea. I'm a homesense addict apparently :rolleyes:
Is there a homesense annonymous?

Couldnt agree with you more Arizona...That is where I bought my lamp that I love but hate the colour of the lampshade, it doesnt really give off a nice light. Anyways, its a rather large shade I need for my lamp and lately when I've been in they have larger shades just the wrong colour.
You're kidding me, I've bought so many nice ones out of those stores. I've even bought lamps I don't like for the beautiful shade that came with it. Their lamps are so inexpensive that they are the same price as some nice shades are.
I am on the hunt for a new lampshade, but everytime i go in to HomeSense, I have no luck:(
I go there to wander around as a stress release, instead of eating a candy bar or something. I have to check out the rugs and lampshades every time I go in one of those stores even though I don't need any more.
I went there and saw some great lamps but I was in a hurry ( I know bad idea) I went back the next day and they were gone :( then I went today and they were there again but I found some I liked better for half the price. :)
I also got a great coverlet for my bed and pillow shams and a picture frame. Woo Hoo!!!
Love that place!!
I keep missing out on their wicker patio furniture, by the time I get there it's all wrapped in plastic with a sold tag on it! GRRR!!!
I wish we had one closer as I think it is the kind of place you have to visit often as stock is always coming and going and to get the best buys you have to be right there. I have only a few things from there but anything I have bought has been a great purchase. The first time I was in one I thought it was just junk but once you get in there and really look you see some great things.
You can go around my house and pick out the HomeSense and the IKEA purchases in droves. Both places ought to give me shares. :)
I love homesense! I do not get as often as I would like as I wish I had one a bit closer since DS is only in school for a few hours in the afternoon and when I go I spend a lot of time looking LOL.
I had to train myself not to buy too many things though ... I guess impulse buys of things I love for a good price but do not go in MY space LOL.
I totally hear what your saying Muranogirl. Like I always say its my home away from home.... :D and speaking of HomeSense I'm going there tonight after work.... :) :p
Maybe you should see if they have a frequent buyer program (or convince them to have one).
