stage coach.

in hopes of taking advantage of the tax credit and upgrading to a new home, we've been looking at a number of houses lately.  in order to buy we will in turn have to sell...not an easy task these days. as such, we've been encouraged to de-clutter and "stage" our home.

the master bedroom has been a haphazard pile of mis-matched furniture pieces including two night stands (i used that word loosely). one resembled a fat stack of wood pieced together to form what i think is the heaviest piece of furniture in my home, and the other was an IKEA tv tray stained in cocoa, of course, match my dresser from second time around (yes, i bought it in college.)  needless to say leaving these items in the room would hinder any attempt at "staging".

i scoured the aisles of hobby lobby in hopes of finding a treasure, and totally scored.  i found two honkin' candle sticks on the clearance rack (80% OFF!) and on the same rack 2 bizarro, decorative, wooden plates. as individuals, maybe strange, but put them together and hello night stand!  check them out. now on to the basement...

I love the tables! You are so creative. I know a cute house in the Forest Hills area that I can cut you a sweet deal on if y'all are looking over here!
