Just delivered

We saw this in the Pottery Barn catalog and thought it would be nice for Danny's new TV. We had originally planned to have a wall unit put in, but our friend Julie said that was out of style and and everyone was going with consoles instead, so we followed orders and went with this...

We actually decided to have the same guy who made our dining room table make us one instead of ordering the one from PB. The price was the same, but this way we got a solid piece of furniture with no veneers and we were able to get it made a little bigger and the color we wanted.

He delivered it this morning and we LOVE it! We still need to have an electrician come out and install 2 new outlets so we can hide all the wires, but that'll have to wait.


We moved our original TV cabinet to a different wall and we're going to use it to store toys and other things we need out of the way. Right now, it still has a TV in it that we need to figure out what to do with.
And here are our stockings. I just love them! Hopefully by next Christmas our handy furniture maker will be able to make us a mantel to hang them from, but for now, this will have to do.

We found Greg on Craig's List (surprise, surprise) HERE is the link for his website..

That is a beautiful piece of furniture! It will last a long time, I'm sure. I love your stockings along the railing like that - looks very festive. Happy Halfway to Christmas!!
