Console Table!

Time to introduce you to our Front Hall Console Table, I mean Media Cabinet, turned Hallways Console Table! Not that we did anything special to make it a hall console, it's just the tag said media cabinet and I said no it's not, that has to be the worst story of all time, but that's how it went down.

I Loved it because of all of the drawers, and the two open cubbies at the top, if it was all drawers it would just look like a dresser!
He came from the Sears Outlet Store, and was marked down from $650 to . . . $300, because it had a tiny dent in the side :) But our little houseplant covers it easily and we saved $350, not that I would have spent $650 in the first place (I'm far too cheap for that).

In fact shelling out the $300 was a bit painful for me, but it's the first thing you see when you come in the front door, you can see it from the Living Room, Dining Room, Library and it's also right smack in front of you when you come down the stairs, so I wanted to make sure it was special!

The rug came from The Home Depot, we chose it because of the colors! Our whole house seems to be based off of this rug.

This is also the stop where the sun comes streaming in through the windows, if the suns out Max can always be found on the rug, sitting in the sun!

The Lamp is a Very very large lamp from Homesense (they have the best lamps). It's white ceramic with an oval shaped white shade. With the console being so dark and HUGE we wanted to balance that with a BIG white lamp!
{I darkened the photo so you can see the lamp better, hope that helps}

You might remember our mirror from the Mudroom of our last Manor! It's just a simple, nickel framed mirror from Home Depot, and the decal is from Etsy! The Shop we bought ours from closed up shop, but if you type in Family Decal, there are a few companies on etsy that make the same decal :)

The Green Baskets are from Michaels (we always wait for michaels to have a sale on their baskets before we buy them, we got each of these guys at 50% off).

Honestly after we bought this console, I thought I would have some buyers remorse, but  as soon as we put him in place I was so happy we spent the extra money. Since you can see him from almost anywhere on the main floor, the price per view is very reasonable :) hehe

And last if you're wondering about the little birdy key hooks and missed our post about them, here's a little post I like to call . . . Tweet, tweet here's your keys!
