Decorating with Black Friday Deals

One of my favorite Webkinz activities is designing rooms. (I’m still hoping to win that Room Design Award trophy someday!) There are a lot of great items in the Wshop, but I have to admit that I’m pretty hooked on the awesome furniture you can find in the Ganz eStore.

Some of my favorite decorating finds are actually on sale for 70% off right now. I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the rooms I’ve designed with these very inexpensive items.

For example, several of the items I used to create this “Library Bedroom” are on sale for 70% off right now:

My Library Bedroom is still a work in progress, so excuse some of the misplaced items. 🙂 The important thing is that you can make a room like this too with some of the 70% off items available during the Black Friday Sale.

First, we have the Persian Cat Library Wallpaper and the Persian Cat Library Flooring.

I also added a couple of Persian Personal Bookcases and two Bookworm Chairs.

Here’s a room I designed for my Grumpy Cat. Over in the lower right corner you can see a couple of Moon Flowers that I used for decoration.

Moon Flowers are 70% of 750 points, which means a final cost of only 375 eStore points!

I imagine that this room would be perfect for a Pageant Queen!

In the upper right hand corner you can see the Jammed Jewelry Box and the Jewelry Box Toy Chest I used to help decorate this room.

It took me quite a while to put this room together because I kept changing up the kitchen area. I finally traded for a second skunk strips fridge.

Between the two skunk striped refrigerators I’ve placed an Iridescent Counter.

I also used the Skunk Stripes Flooring.

I really love Halloween, so I made this Halloween party room last year and filled it up with lots of pets in costumes. I used the Halloween Dance Wallpaper, the Halloween Dance Floor and the Halloween Stereo System.

In this Butterfly Garden, I used the Aquamarine Butterfly Tree:

I know it doesn’t make sense to have a topiary in an indoor room, but I just love the way the Rosy Dolphin Topiary looks with all the other pinks and blues in this room I made for my Pink Dalmatian:

So those are just a few ideas for ways to use the Black Friday Sale items in your room designs. Which sale items do you like best? Have you been shopping the Ganz eStore sale?

Black Friday Sales! Big savings and lots of fun!

The Ganz eStore is having a HUGE Black Friday sale. Whatever items you’re in the market for, the eStore has got you covered. There’s 70% off on items including clothes, furniture, wallpaper and flooring. There’s 40% off select exclusive online pets. And that’s just the beginning!

One of the highlights for me is the 50% off sale on CandyKinz pets and CandyKinz theme room items. I used several pieces from this collection in my “Good Ship Lollipop,” which won me a free virtual Pet of the Month from a Webkinz Newz contest.

For instance, I used the CandyKinz Lollipop Chair and the CandyKinz Wishing Well in my design. I created the pathway use CandyKinz Pathway Tiles. And I even included the CandyKinz Gumdrop Sofa!

I thought the Licorice Fish was so adorable that I bought one of those, too! I’ll adopt it this weekend so I can put up a video and show you how the Licorice Fish looks in Webkinz World.

Another pet I picked up this weekend is the ultra exclusive Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus. This online pet is ONLY available during the Black Friday weekend sale at the Ganz eStore, and once the sale is over, this pretty purple sparkling pet will be gone! I’ll adopt her this weekend too so I can show you what she looks like in Webkinz  World. (I definitely think my Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus is a girl!)

It’s time for me to go eat some lunch – but I’ll be back later today with more reporting on the Black Friday Sale at the Ganz eStore. And I’ll do a post with some hints for earning the Cash Cow 2 Trophy (only available this weekend!).
