I have been searching for nightstands for months for our guest bedroom. I have found that most are ridiculously overpriced ($175-250 a piece and those aren’t even fancy once) and they aren’t even that cute. I found these at Marshalls for $30 a piece and thought they were cute. They are meant to be knockoffs of these that are very popular and sell for $625 a piece! Target and Overstock also have knockoffs but still range between $50-$100.The husband did not understand my excitement when I brought them home. He said they looked like TV trays and that the cats would knock them over in no time. We did a little test last weekend and I put one in the center of the living room. I said if it fell over by the time we got home from dinner I would return them. They were still standing! So, let me know your thoughts – do they look right in the room? I think they are really cute but the cords kind of bother me since they aren’t hidden {I am sure I could find a solution for that}. I think the round shape works well with all the square lines. The price is perfect and right in the range I was hoping for. Please keep in mind I need new lamp shades as the black does not look right. I also found curtains at Z Gallerie this weekend that are exact matches to the pillow on the bed. I am still debating if we need them.
We opted not to work on the hallway today because we are headed to Iowa shortly for our brother-in-law’s 40th birthday. So, here are some shots of where we left off {hopefully we can fit some time in tomorrow to work on it}. I finally got a tripod and it helps SO much for shots where I am trying not to use a flash and let in more natural light. Still have a few weeks left on the hallways but I love how it is coming along – it brightens up the space so much!
