The best part about finding sales is not that I can shop for my favorite things for super low prices. The favorite part about sales is that I can share the sales with all my friends so they can save too! Decorating your home can be a huge expense since there are so many things to buy like furniture, bedding, and even artwork. Luckily, there's Decor Deals, so it's even a greater joy to share the deals that can be found for over 50% off the original retail price. If you're going to be entertaining a lot during the holiday season, a nice pair of stainless steel salad servers is a must have at any dining room table. The Dorado salad servers used to be over $40 but you can snag them for $16.95. Mirrors can also be a huge expense (and totally worth it when you glimpse your gorgeous self), but I've found the Turner Portrait Mirror for $149.99 down from $500! Click over to my slideshow to see all the must have deals that will keep your home well decorated and your wallet happy.
Sitting Pretty: Chic And Comfortable Tufted Furniture

Unlike many of my friends, I actually like firm furniture and beds. If I sleep on a soft and mushy bed, I wake up with a sore back. Guess I could blame it on my semester abroad in Taiwan where I slept on a bamboo mat for four months. Hard as a rock beds and wooden furniture are now my priorities when shopping for my home. That's when I discovered the beauty of tufted furniture! I know tufted pieces can seem really old fashioned and taken right out of Versailles, but I can imagine just getting one or two and having it look super chic with my minimalist (read: IKEA) furniture. Best of all, it's a nice balance between firm and soft. I really like the convertible couch found over at PB Teen which doubles as a sofa and a full size bed, and this velvet ottoman from Brocade Home which does triple duty as an ottoman, coffee table, and extra seating. I can imagine Goldilocks finding tufted furniture "just right." Take a look at my slideshow for more!
