Hello Pottery Barn Outlet

Good morning!  I only recently learned that Pottery Barn Outlets exist. How I did not know this sooner is very upsetting!  When I found out that there was one located just an hour and half away from Charlotte, I immediately knew I HAD to go!  Last week my parents came from Idaho for a visit and it worked out perfectly to go last Tuesday. Richie had the day off, My dad and Richie wanted to visit Battle of the Cowpens (only 12 miles from the Outlet), and I had my mom there to help coax the boys into taking us. Perfect!
 
I love that my mom captured this photo.
If you haven't been to a PB Outlet, they are set up more like a warehouse and not at all like a regular PB store.  I was fine with this, as I flip through the catalogs so often that I know exactly what their items look like in a house setting. 

It took great self control for me to not bring home everything in the store.   I'm Serious!  Some items were 20% off, similar to the sales I see online, but other items were as low as 70% off.  Richie and I ended up purchasing this 9x12 rug for our home in Idaho.  I have had my eyes on it for months!  The regular price on it is $850 but because this one had been returned we were able to snag it for $350 (this included taxes, and the shipping fee to have it sent to Idaho).  Needless to say, we left pretty darn proud of our "great deal!"
 
I'm off to bake a pumpkin pie!  I have this troubling idea in my head that every good housewife should know how to bake the perfect piecrust just like my grandmother did.  We all have our quirks right? 
 
Happy Thanksgiving!
 
Xoxo,
