Confused by the title? Well, me and my doll alter ego had a few minutes to kill before going to our third woodworking class for the week. I decided to hit Marshall's, Ross', and TJ. Normally I head right to the toy section, so I knew I could be in an out of all three within 1/2 hour. Well my alter ego had other plans. Remember she is one of two interior designers in Morristown. Those people start looking for things for all of their clients. Then they start finding things for future clients, they don't even have yet.
Well she took me to some section in the back where she found this. She told me this would be great in the park. What park? Was she designing a park that I didn't know about? Then she mentioned Rod and Danielle, and I had to agree with her that this would be nice incorporated in the wedding somehow. This was full price and I told her she needed to focus on clearance items moving forward because we were on a budget.
She did better with this item. It was marked to $3.50. I'm not sure how I will use them. Maybe in a restaurant, or a catered event by Antoinette, or the wedding. She also pointed out that she could use the black case as a shelf unit in one of her clients house.
She spotted this when we got to the checkout counter. She was like the kid seeing candy at the checkout stores in the grocery store. I told her they were very cute, but they were $8, and we weren't buying them. They had lots of pretty ones and they kept drawing both of us in. We let two people go in front of us in the line so we could continue looking.
Then it was like we both saw it at the same time. Do you see what we saw? A sofa. We could use the box as a sofa. Add some cute throw pillows and there you have it. Granted it won't be the softest sofa to sit on, but it will look pretty.
She thought maybe it could be used in Halle's new place. We will see.
It's actually a diffuser. So we got three things for $8. A little more reasonable.
Now if Ms. Interior Designer hadn't been with me, I would have gotten out of the store buying only this LIV doll for $5. Needless to say, when I walked out of Marshall's I went to the car, instead of walking to Ross' which was a couple doors down. Of course she asked why we weren't going. I told her you just blew the money I was planning to spend in all three stores. We are now technically out of dolly money. And I can just imagine the damage you will do in the other two stores. No thank you! I will come back when you are safe at home with your husband and two kids.
