i can't stop...

[tiggz]

decorating my non-existant house!!! for example? last weekend, i bought furniture in preparation of the day i move out.

these were taken with my camera phone. so they aren't the best quality, but you can get the gist.


my kitchen table. you can't see the detail of the table top, but it's really cool.


the kitchen chair back


coffee table


coffee tabletop


my couch!

it's all being stored in my sister's garage until i get a place.

now i can't quit looking for a nice, inexpensive cherry headboard/footboard on craigslist. oh and i'm also in love with some art and rugs at target.

Hiya, Tiggy! *Hugs!* Sorry I haven't been commenting so much lately. I'm moving into a new apartment, and the health problems and other day to day crap I deal with have been keeping me in touch with maybe ten people most of the time. I see you are needing an intervention. Well, as it happens, I excel at intervention! I'm not sure, but I think "intervention" is probably French for "Get right into her veins and change her mind about all the shopping!" And I was going to do that for you, I really was, then I saw that picture of that coffee table, and said "OOOHHH! I like that!" And then, I really like the first and second "art" ones. Since I am in the middle of moving, and thus looking at things and thinking how nice they would look in MY new place, I am probably not so good at this intervention thing right now, but I will try to come back after I'm all done moving and firmly tell you, "Tiggy, you need to stop!" And, then, you need to hop into your car and drive up to Ohio and come and visit me in the new home of ducky, which I will be calling "La Maison de Mignon," which actually IS French for "The Home of ducky!" We can go to that fancy French store, Tarjay (but, being French, they spell it Target), and maybe that place where they sell wals (Wal-Mart), even though I'm not sure if the wals will fit in my new home. Plus, we have a Family Dollar store, where the whole family can go and spend their dollars. Yep, if a shopping trip with ducky don't cure you of shopping, nothing will!

I COVET YOUR COUCH! You can always find me snuggled in the corner seat of those kinds of couches.

The coffee table is super-pretty and it looks like it's got a slate top, which is a material I adore. But it...also looks like it would not be comfortable to put my legs on, which is a bad judging criteria (since you're not supposed to put your feet on furniture and everything) but it would totally rule something like that out for my family room.

Wow. You really are a good shopper. I love the details in the furniture, and I absolutely love your kitchen table.

I love the coffe table, where did you get it??

I am starting to buy stuff for my place. I got one of those storage kits you see advertised on TV-the revolving storage rack with the 18 different containers with lids that are one size fits all plus a set of cast iron pans and a wok set for $30 (brand new).

I really like the fourth bit of art :)

That furniture is so pretty! I love the chairs with the coffee cup.

That coffee table is amazing and the couch looks comfy as hell...er...perhaps heaven?

And I actually think we had one of those rugs on our registry, lol.
