State of Steals

Luxury looks for the home for a total steal

About Me

Hey y’all, I’m Missouri (yep, like the state) and welcome to State of Steals.

Being born with a trust fund makes it so easy for me to stay home and shop endlessly. JUST KIDDING! Y’all, I work full time and totally appreciate what it’s like to decorate on a budget. I am no stranger to Craiglist furniture and turning to DIY options because I can’t afford the real deal. My mantra is “never pay full price”. For me, finding designer style at an attainable price point is my mission in all things I do, and with State of Steals, I’ll be sharing those finds with you.

I graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in Construction Management and I currently work full time in the construction/design industry. My husband and I remodeled our historic southern home in Mobile, Alabama in 2018. When you have a shoestring budget, furnishing an entire house at once can be daunting, but it taught me that if you know where to look, you can have a home that you love and are proud of!

My personal design style is Transitional. I’m as passionate about antiques as I am historic architecture. I think every room needs aged pieces to ground it and I love mixing in modern touches to keep things interesting. I’m a full believer in buying pieces that speak to you, even if they’re not necessarily on theme in a particular room. There is beauty in the mix-match.

Follow along as I share Steals vs. Splurges on home furnishings, share DIY tips (and lessons learned from DIY fails), and open the doors of my house to you.

Keep up with my latest Steals on Instagram.
