Find Of The Week:

We found this a handy little item for dog owners at Dollarama. It's a bone-shaped bag dispenser for picking up after your pet and attaches easily to a leash. The dispenser comes pre-filled with a roll of 15 bio-degradable bags and a refill roll of 15 more bags that can be inserted via a screw-on lid on one end. I didn't see any refill rolls sold separately, but you can buy a box of 48 biodegradable Poop 'n Scoop bags for a dollar. If you put two of three of these in the empty holder before you go walkies with your pal, it's still better than stuffing your pockets and keeps a bag always handy. 

July Features:

If you would like to decorate in the Victorian style, you can get something of the look with look-alike accessories. Visit our new section, Get The Look For Less to find out how to become a dollar store Victorian.

While we’re busy sprucing up the yard and gardens, we shouldn’t forget to let summer shine through in our indoor decorating, as well. It’s as easy as packing your darker colored accessories away for the season and replacing them with a few summery ones. Read A Touch of Summer  for ideas to get you started.

Flowers add beauty and hominess to a room but, if you don't have a budget for fresh flowers every week, you can achieve a measure of the same effect with the good-looking fabric plants available these days. This bouquet contains $8.00 worth of fabric stems. See Fakin' It for more fabric flower arrangements.
