I'll Probably Regret This

....but I hope not. 

Do any of you remember seeing this fabulous console table that Chinoiserie Chic posted about? I have been stalking Craigslist for anything that would resemble it.

This is what I found




I know!!! Crazy good, yes?

Well, after walking all over my home....I just can't find a spot for it. Trust me, I really tried. I think my husband is secretly happy...but he is acting all, "Oh, are you sure? I know you really liked it?" I can just hear his smirking in his text.

Somebody, please go grab this...fix it up...and come back and tell me all about it!! I will be so jealous happy for you.

It could look like this

In a room, you would never leave

I'm a little bummed about it...but I know that the Craigslist fairy will bring me something good real soon. Now I'm off to track down some more stuff that I don't need and can't live without.

I don't have a spot for it either. We can start a club.

I hate leaving something behind, especially if it were a good deal! At least your find was special, I am still kicking myself for leaving a $7 side table at Target- nothing exciting just a good deal :)

Oh My, I love this!! I too just did a visual run through my home ... I would consider driving there!! xo

I love stalking Craigslist, you never know you'll find that you don't need!

I need it, I want it. I have a place for it.

Shut the front door! It's perfect. You are going to be rewarded big time for your self restraint. I would probably buy it and have it sit in my basement for years. You are strong girlfriend!!! It won't work in the entry?

Fletcher @ High Cotton Style said...

Dying over here... If only it was closer! Damn!

nevermind just read beth's post...

The Pink Pagoda said...

It's amazing, but I could only use one that will fit up against a wall. Do the people selling it have the broken tusks pieces?

Nancy said...

You can't use it in your MBR? Oh my, this is one you will regret I fear. It is so unique and fabulous! Have a great weekend LInda,

OOoh, I feel for you Linda! We all do that a lot, buying and searching for things we don't need but can't live without, sigh... Good luck dear, happy hunting and have a great weekend!

A fabulous piece. I am looking for a console for my dining room and have stepped away from a few pieces in stores and online because I wanted to be a 100% sure (and sometimes shipping costs were way to hight). Some day the right piece will find me :)

Carrie @ Hazardous Design said...

Ugh! Don't you just hate when that happens?
Don't worry, you'll find something equally as fabulous that you'll have the space for soon.

wao!!! that is a beauty! I can't believe it doesn't fit anywhere in your house!! I hope somebody takes it...its a GOODY for sure.

Junell said...

Such fun! What a shame:(

SHERRY HART said...

Holy Moly...that is a really cool piece! I can hear the frustration in your voice...I mean seriously!
