Table Knockoff



Have you ever had a moment of pure brilliance only to have it smashed into a million little pieces that resemble your sanity on the best of days? Earlier today I had an AHMAZING notion that the table set I really lusted after from Grandin Road was a simple design and it could be easily customized from a cheaper set of tables. I am, afterall, no stranger to spray paint. If only I could find the right set.

So I Googled for "metal nesting tables" and a celestial chorus started singing in my head. I saw the perfect trio of metal tables at World Market--the Ashton Nesting Tables.. $150 for the trio.

Really, is that not perfect or what?! Grandin Road's trio is $229. Then my record scratched. Online stated it was on back-order. I have no patience for back-order. I am all about immediate gratification.  So over lunch, I dashed into World Market. I searched high and low and I even went so far as to harass a rushed clerk into looking for me. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Bubble of excitement = popped.  

I may find myself haunting World Market until this trio comes in. I mean, honestly--can't you see it?!

Set of Three Hailey Metal Nesting Tables - Grandin Road / Ashton Nesting Tables, Set of 3

If someone out there sees these in their World Market, they need to purchase a set ASAP because this would be an amazing deal and a super-easy project to spiff up your deck and customize it to your color scheme!!!

Knock Me Off

A couple weeks ago I talked about creating a new blog series called the High Low list... I worried a little bit about copyright infringement because it seems there are a lot of "High Low" features in magazines and online. In fact, HGTV had a brilliant series with Sabrina Soto that was called "The High Low Project" and I absolutely loved watching that show. HGTV hasn't been very much fun lately since it seems like every time I find time to flip on the TV it's just another house hunting episode. ,/Bor-ing,/,/

But since I am forever online browsing and finding some good knock offs, I am going to rename the High Low list to "Knock Me Off." Hopefully nobody has used that before!  So here we go with the next (first?!) installment of Knock Me Off!
