Budget Friendly Back to School Finds!

July 30, 2019 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

I cannot belive how fast this summer has flown by!  How is it already the end of July??!  School will be here before we know it!  I am both happy and sad about this.  I love summer and the laid back schedule, but Fall is my favorite season, I function better with a routine and there is just something so exciting about starting a new school year!  Back to school shopping, new school supplies, new teachers and friends in your classes, etc!  We have started doing some back to school shopping over here and I am excited to show you what we found!  Lots of budget friendly back to school finds!

I’ve shared before how much I love shopping at Walmart.  It is my go-to for amazing things at incredible prices.  I have been finding the best fashion fashion there lately!  I found so many great things for back to school and it was all shipped to my house for FREE in 2 days!  Winning!  I also want to share a little story about how incredible the Walmart customer service is.  We were out of town when my order arrived, we were literally in the car headed home from Austin, when my Blink Camera went off and showed someone steal my packages off my front porch!  Are you kidding me??!!!  (Insert lots of mad emojis here).  I have never had anything stolen off my porch before and felt so violated.  Anyway, that is a whole other story, but I contacted Walmart and yall, they replaced the entire order.  They were so sweet about the whole thing and had every single items shipped back out to me in 2 days for no additional cost!!  Walmart customer for life!

Walmart seriously has everything you need for back to school!  Backpacks, school supplies, cute on trend clothes, shoes and great staple items!  Both kids loved everything we found!  They were happy with the look and feel and I was thrilled with the price!

BUDGET FRIENDLY BACK TO SCHOOL FINDS

AVERY: TOP, JEANS, BOOTIES, BACKPACK        BRADEN: TOP, JEANS, SHOES, BACKPACK

Avery’s entire outfit is less than $35!  Cutest mixed pattern ruffle tank (comes in multiple colors) $7, Jordache Skinny Jeans $11.94 and the cutest booties (also come in black. . .not available online yet, only in stores, but will be online soon) $14.97 plus the cutest flippy sequin backpack for only $12.88!!

Braden’s outfit is less than $26!  Long Sleeve pocket Henley (comes in multiple colors) on SALE $4.50,  Children’s Place Straight Jeans $11.50, Canvas Sneakers $9.87!  I love these because they look like laces, but they actually velcro! His camo backpack was ONLY $4.96!!

AVERY: TOP, JEANS, SHOES, BACKPACK        BRADEN: TOP, JEANS, SHOES, BACKPACK

Avery is wearing the same jeans ($11.94) I shared above, but they are not rolled up.  I like buying a few staple items that can be worn different ways.  This long sleeve top ($8.92) was a total win.  Not only is it cute, but it is so soft!  Comes in multiple colors and I love the ruffle slit on the side.  It is hi/low so you could definitely pair it with leggings and it would cover the bum.   How cute are these metallic rose gold ruffle slip on sneakers (12.76)??!!  We had to have these!  She said they were very comfortable and so easy to put on!  Her entire outfit is less than $34.

Braden wore the same outfit.  He loved this one so much he didn’t want to change, but I will share some other great boy finds below!

We found this great hoodie sweatshirt for less than $12!  Comes in multiple colors and I love the sequin detail down the sleeves.  This is great as the weather gets cooler for her to layer!

We have a jump start on back to school shopping, but I am sure we will be doing more and heading back to Walmart!  We also need to get some school supplies once the list from our school comes out!

MORE BACK TO SCHOOL FINDS we loved!

GIRLS:

BOYS:

Hope you found lots of great things you love for your kiddos!  Online is my favorite way to shop, but be sure to check your local stores too!  Lots of great finds in the store as well!  Now time to go soak up our last few weeks of summer!

When designing our home I pulled inspiration from all over! Pinterest, Instagram, magazine, design books, etc. we had this long spot in our front entry that we were trying to figure out and when I saw this image (swipe to see) in @gilschaferthearchitect ‘s book it stopped me in my tracks. I loved the use of transoms and designated spaces. My architect @josephpaulhomes & his wife Michelle helped pull the whole look together. So happy with how it turned out.

My grandfather owned a grocery store in New Jersey. The scale hanging from the ceiling in our butler’s pantry was the scale in his store. My uncle had it for the longest time & gifted it to me when we moved into this home. I love it so much!! My mom has the cash register he used in his store in her home. I love decorating with items that have meaning & that tell a story.

I love hallways & nooks. They are a great way to add interest to your home. Natural light & details are key. This space connects our hearth room to the gameroom. The Dutch door goes out to our courtyard, the room at the end is my office and the door to the left (just out of the photo) goes to the pool bath. Lots going on in this space.
I saw this floor pattern in a design book & had to have it somewhere in our home. I love it so much!

Bathrooms are such a fun space to make bold choices. They are small so every decision & detail makes a big impact. Still in love with this wallpaper from @wallpapersgalore_

✨REMODEL UPDATE: FAMILY ROOM✨

This family room had good bones, but we needed to declutter , maximize storage, update furnishings & make the space more functional.

🤎comment SHOP for sources
➡️ swipe to see before & after photos

There was a wall of shelves that was just too much. We purged and decorated with items that she loved & had sentimental value. So many homes are built with tons of open shelving and you have to be really careful in these spaces because they can become a spot for clutter instead of being intentional. 
•added cabinet doors to 2 sections of shelves for some much-needed hidden storage.
•utilized the shelving that was separate from the other ones to make a designated bar space that is intentional and great for entertaining.
•found an gorgeous antique bar back to go against the wall that again is used as a bar when they entertain. Previously, it was a huge bench that took up width, but added no height to the wall. This is a major focal point in this space so we made it both functional and beautiful.
• I am not a huge fan of sectional couches unless they are in very specific areas. I think sometimes when people have a big room, they look for a big furniture to take up the space but it doesn’t actually give you the most seating and the spacing is sometimes awkward. They still really wanted a leather couch in there so we kept that, but then used more tailored chairs to frame the space.
• found this gorgeous coffee table on Facebook marketplace. Such a find!
•Removed the huge windmill fan that really took away from the gorgeous architecture of the ceiling with the beams.
•filled in dead space with functional furniture, like a cute table perfect for  game night.
•scaled back the TV so it made more sense over the fireplace and went with a frame one so there could be pretty art up there as it is a main focal point. (Art was off in this photo, but typically it looks like a vintage painting)

So excited with how this space turned out. It’s lighter, brighter, more functional & a better use of space. They have walls of windows along the back of the house with a beautiful view and now you’re able to focus on that more.

✨REMODEL UPDATE: DAUGHTER’S BATHROOM ✨

Throughout this remodel you will see two constant goals…brighten up the spaces & add functional storage. This bathroom was dark & dated. We took everything out and had a fresh start. 

🩵 comment SHOP for sources

•New paint, wallpaper, tile, fixtures, lighting, etc.
•Raised the height of the counters & some additional cabinetry extending up to the ceiling for much needed storage. 
•Added cute details to the side of the counters
•Removed the tub & added a glass door to the shower to make the space feel bigger & more open.

This sweet girl has brought us so much joy! We are “foster failures” & couldn’t be happier about it. Callie has been the best addition to our family.
Chat GPT made this cute art from our Christmas picture of her. She was living her best life with all the ribbon from the presents.

I love a mudroom! I don’t care what size house I live in from here on out I’ll always have some “mudroom” space…even if it’s a tiny little spot. It’s so great to have a drop zone to keep organized. This space got lots of use during our ice storm with all the wet shoes, etc & these brick floors were great!!

Feels strange getting back to work this week. We’ve been living in PJs and been asking what day it was for about a week now. Snowmageddon 2026 was fun & we still have piles of ice on the ground….BUT nice to go back to a bit of a routine. January felt like 47 days 🤪
