These $12.99 ikat vases begged to hang out on my mantle:

These lamps ($39.99 and $49.99) tried to woo me with their curves:

The $16.99 pineapples swore that they would be the perfect addition to any centerpiece in my dining room (and the ceramic ones are a great substitute for the pricier Z Gallerie version):

I just knew that a set of these festive urns would make a great display on our covered patio:

This cute little cake plate for $12.99 could be gussied up for any occasion by simply switching out the bow:

And the graphic shapes of the $2.99 solid plate and gorgeously patterned $3.99 plate would make an awesome statement for a holiday place setting:

These glossy black urns for $29.99 want to flank a console table in a snazzy entryway:

And this $29.99 chinoiserie table would make the perfect bar with the addition of a glass shelf at the bottom:

And everything about this shapely, ebony mirror (for just $19.99) screamed “Buy me!!”  Alas, I didn’t have a good place for it.  Sniff.

Like I said, a trip to HomeGoods can be dangerous.  Gotten anything great there lately?
