The Table is Mine

Okay, so this post is very very very late in coming. . .

I had been eyeing this majorly awesome side table at Target since they put out their "Home Design Event" things at the beginning of the year:



I had been telling everyone that would listen about this table that I just had to have as soon as it went down to %50 off. I posted pictures I had taken in the store with my camera phone to my Flickr account. I had to have this table.

I knew that Target marked down their clearance on Tuesdays and Saturdays (I'm not sure if this is true for all Targets, or just mine) so twice a week I would beg my mom to stop on her way to work and see if the price had dropped yet. Finally, one Tuesday morning (3 weeks ago) I got the call:
Mom - You owe me $60
Me - Does that mean I got the table?
Mom - It's in my car as we speak.
Me - I'm doing the "I've got a table" happy dance
Mom - Are people giving you strange looks?
Me - Yep. . .



The table in the picture was already gone when my mom got there, so I got the one next to it (hence the arrow). Thank goodness for my mom, right after she grabbed it some lady came rushing into the "Home Design Event" section looking for it. My mother said the too-late-lady kept eyeing her cart as she shopped. Mom was afraid she was going to get jumped on the way to her car.

I notice you have been checking out side tables and couches. If you are not already done with your walls, there are awesome decorative posters you can shop for online.

I personally like the Japanese art prints that Splash! Posters carries. You can find European masterpieces and breathtaking photographic prints there, too.

It looks best table but not looks more useful becuase its size looks more small.
