Salvete (vel, "Hola" in linga espanica)!
I am buying a grip of furniture. I'm a bit freaked out about how much I'm spending, but I'm also very excited to make my apartment girly and matchy matchy. I'm sorta doing a cottage chic thing with lots of white furniture... but I'm also going with some purples and florals for other bits of stuff. You should see the awesome lavender couch I found to go with my side arms wtih Latin script on them. (I
overstock).
Anyway... at this point, I really just need a dining room table, but I need help deciding.
Do I go with the super budget option (to try to make up for being overbudget in a couple other categories):
I don't like it as much. You can see the screw holes, and the dark brown seat cushions aren't really what I'm looking for either. But it's not bad. And, let's face it, it's $200.
Or there's this one:
I like it okay. It's not my dream table by any stretch of the imagination, but I like it better than the other one. But it's also about twice as much. I like it a LOT more, but I don't know whether I should pinch pennies at this point because I've had to buy so much furniture or just go for the one I like better.
So... which table would you go with?
And for a gratuitous picture... here's the first non-dark brown bedding (ugh, boys!) I will have had in a decade:
