Another piece of the puzzle that is the furnishing of my home. We snagged this cutie li’l table last weekend and think it might be the perfect perch for the family till. i still need to style the rest of the tabletop and i’m thinking fresh flowers in rotation would be nice if i can just stick to it!
i find that i am a collector when it comes to decorating. i just will NOT buy something unless i love it. i will live without a bedside table for 2 years and my alarm clock on the floor if i can’t find the perfect piece for that spot. It’s kinda nutty, but i can’t help it. Random pieces come to live at my house in their own due time and slowly the rooms are fleshing themselves out.
Do you guys furnish your homes a whole room at a time? Or by acquiring an interesting piece here and another there with little plan for where it might work in your decor?
Stephanie, I’m the same way! I’m willing to do without until I find that certain something that just speaks to me. Oddly enough, my bedside table is currently a chair because I haven’t found an actual nightstand/table to suit me yet.
I love it! I too am not the decorator/decorating type….It has to spark me…grab me…none of the rooms or walls are decorated in my house….it’s pretty much plain! LOL…weird for ‘crafty gal’ I know, but I slowly collect too…we have a set of baseball stadium bleacher seats sitting in our hall for the day when we can put together our ‘sports hang out room’ for all these boys in my house! The were taken right from Tigers stadium when it was torn down!…But that table is adorable…and your family till! swoooooooooooon!
haha!! stephanie! mine is a telephone table that is too tall for our low platform bed….but i’m holding out!!
those stadium seats sound awesome!! and thanks for the sweet “swoon” over our till….here’s my post on scoutiegirl about it http://www.scoutiegirl.com/2010/07/wake-create-repeat-creating-a-family-tradition.html
