I like to go to Garden Ridge....I don't know if they have one out there or not.
Do I sound like a cheap skate if I tell you to check out the garage sales? You may be able to find some cool mirrors and stuff. Otherwise, this is a great time of year for clearance sales. Don't rule out antique shops...even if your taste isn't old-fashioned. You could find something cool and just touch it up a bit. Steve is great at that anyway, right? Good luck...have fun!
I LOVE ikea! I have a wishlist in the works right now. We have to go all the way to Houston, but we make the trip a couple of times a year. I've also gotten stuff at Target. Check department stores like Dillards, Macy's, JcPenny's, etc. They occasionally have good sales on their home decor. I keep an eye on the sales papers for those deals. Good luck.
Home Interior or sometime Walmart
Did you see the pictures I made that I put on my blog. I just got some art canvas (I was at JoAAnns yesterday and they were on sale 1/2 price.) And decoupaged scrapbook paper on them. It seriously was so easy. And this way you can make them custom to match your room. Here is the link to my pics.

TARGET- love it. For the big buckaroo's, Pottery Barn. Have fun!
I guess I am just not confident in my decorating skills, although sometimes I come up with something cute. Thanks for the ideas gals!
Target has some great frames already matted for you. I buy things here and there. We have stuff from Pier 1, Ashley Furniture, Target, World Market, Babies r us, Bombay, Ikea, and countless others. I always look for sales. We've aquired things slowly during the past 7 years. Good luck! It's always good to find a sale that offers no interest for a year, and a percentage off if you open a credit card with their store. If you're paying a big chunk of change, 15% turns into a big savings!
Don't forget to ask about floor models. I have gotten all kinds really nice stuff from Pottery Barn by buying their floor models.
do you know those clear plastic box-like frames that you can get for like $3 bucks at Wal-mart or target or michaels? Have Emma do some art work for you and buy a few of those frames. That way its cheap, easy, and meaningful. You can also buy really cheap frames at IKEA. I decorate with "found items." Things that I already have or make myself. By arranging what you already have differently or taking things out of context (ie..changing a plate into a candle holder or using Jared's trombone case as an endtable) you can create a warm and meaningful environment. I like to go to Hobby Lobby for decorating as well because they have awesome sales on frames, decor, and flowers.
