Yay, it's Tuesday! Come on. Admit it, Tuesday is kinda growing on you. Hmmm not yet? Well would it help if I told you that $10 could buy you some graphic melamine plates or a tool to measure pasta? (As if we needed another reason for spaghetti night!) What are you gonna buy this week?

Color, color, everywhere! On the walls. On the floors. On the tables. Thanks to the cool lacquer finishes we can add bright spots to our homes. Got any lacquer pieces of your own?

Hello, Tuesday! Thank you for arriving with some good deals for the week. We've got side tables in so many fun colors (nope, this is not a typo), cute containers for organizing spices plus all you need for shucking some oysters. If you only had $10... which would you buy?

Tuesday has always been my least favorite day of the week. Time to cut it some slack. From now on, it's the day for posting all of my favorite cheap (under $10) finds. Need another reason to love Tuesday?

A table within a table within a table.... Can it get any better than that? Nope, not if you're like me and short on space. They're popping up everywhere in different colors, shapes and styles. Are you into the tucked away table idea?

Stemless. Mouthblown. Etched. When it comes to glassware, I'm a sucker for bright colors and graphics galore. Come on, who needs a full set when you can mix and match so many cool designs. Got any of your own faves?

Blue. It's the one color I could never live without. Navy is my go-to-decorating shade but I'd be pretty darn happy with any part of the blue family. Midnight. Powder. Cobalt. Are you drawn to any shades?

No surprises, we're all about corn on the cob this time of year. And there are lots of fun gadgets for tackling it. We've got zippers. We've got kernel strippers. We've even got butter spritzers. Whether you prefer the holders –or your hands– this is definitely one mess-approved treat. Do you have any favorite tools or corn recipes?
