For this micro-post I am encouraging you to embrace your friendly neighbourhood dollar store!
Not literally. Don't go out and start hugging buildings and strangers because I told you so. We're talking figuratively here, okay?
Back on track: Don't be afraid to get a few things from the dollar store. Yes, quality may at times be an issue. But honestly, oftentimes it's not! The dollar store has tons of quality items and items that are of enough quality to be used safely and economically. If one third of my home is made up of IKEA products, one third of DIY makeovers and hand-me-downs, then the majority of the last one third is definitely made up of dollar store finds.
