Hey Nesters! First, I want to thank you for your patience. For what, Gina? you ask? For bearing with me on my perpetual hunt for a coffee table. And lucky for you guys... it's over! I have gone completely in the opposite direction than we discussed in this post and in this post. Originally, I was talking wood boxy rectangles with storage and dark stains or paint and was in love with this Rhys Pottery Barn piece.
And this evening I will be picking up this handsome little number from Craiglist.
It's not at all what I was looking for at first! Knowing how small my living room is and I have to maintain a multi-functional space {work and relaxation and entertaining} with lots of furniture, I thought that any one of those heavy wood coffee tables would dwarf the room. So my automatic thought was a simple glass top coffee table. Easier said than done! I hunted and hunted and most were very pricey or more ornate than I wanted. Finally Sunday night I stumbled across this one on Craigslist. For a mere $40 I will be picking up this bad boy this very evening. It is supposedly completely scratch-free. Let's just hope when I get it back here, it's still scratch-free.
I am giddy as a school girl to reveal how this looks all pulled together.
Stay tuned for a follow up photos once it's in!
