Martha Stewart Living Outdoor Patio Furniture – Purchased!

Another purchase we’ve been waiting and waiting on is our outdoor patio set. We knew sales would begin around August (which is a bummer because the warm weather will soon be gone) – but we wanted the best deal. I’ve been eyeing Martha Stewart Living outdoor furniture for awhile, and finally found an outstanding price on HomeDecorators.com.  Discounted from $700 to $400 and included free shipping, can’t beat it! Check out our new patio set, to arrive in 3-5 days!
