A Surprising Way to Help Others Every Time You Shop for Balcony Decor
For the past few weeks, I’ve been completely immersed in redecorating my balcony. My Pinterest obsession is at an all-time high as I search for inspiration to transform this small, charming area outside my Los Angeles apartment’s front door. Currently a bit lackluster, my mission is to infuse it with charm and cuteness, turning it into a delightful space.
A little over a year ago, I decided to try an herb garden in this space, but sadly, I have a row of large trees that block a majority of direct sunlight during the day, so my plants died out quickly. I was so sad!
The good news is that this is giving me an opportunity to try again.
I plan on trying something a little less green thumb and more lounge-like. I may even throw some fake plants in there so it doesn’t look like I just look like I like to kill the real ones so often. Embarrassing. I want to look like a successful decorator.
My goal. To make this space look swanky and to inspire others to try the same.
When I decided to revamp my approach, I decided to do the same with my shopping this time. If you haven’t heard of Giving Assistant, it is a website where you can shop at your favorite stores online and earn cash back.
The cool thing is that this site will allow you to send your cashback to a charity of your choosing. You can give 100% or 50% of your cashback. You decide. The other cool thing about this website is what they do…
Amazing right? I love that they make me feel really good about the purchases I make for this balcony decor makeover. Contributing to people in need while doing things around my home is a win win.
This shopping trip earned 4% cash back shopping at Lowe’s for a new plant stand and some string lights for my outdoor oasis. I decided the charity I wanted to support is the camp I volunteer at, Rad Camp Inc.
I have my cash back allocated to their cause! Makes me feel great about my purchases for my balcony decor.
I can not wait for these items to arrive so I can get to work on my new sophisticated little lanai balcony. My southern friends know what I am talking about right? Here is some of my inspiration and a mood board I have created for this balcony decor project!
I was excited to also receive this email proving my cashback amount and where it is going!
Here are a few stores you will probably be shopping at for your home! You can get coupon codes in addition to earning cash back!
I will make sure to share my next steps in tackling this space. Next time you shop for anything for your home or life make sure you shop through Giving Assistant!
