Here is another really good look for less.

While out wasting a little time before I needed to get Noah from baseball practice I decided to take a quick look in Pottery Barn.   I was so surprised to see a table just like the one I purchased for the office building.  I saved so much money, and didn't even know!



This is the Pottery Barn Abbott Rectangular Zinc-Top Dining Table.  $1499.00.  84 inches long.



This is the Art Van Keaton Trestle Table.  I got mine for $481.13.  76 inches long.  It's not quite as long as the Pottery Barn table, but I saved over a thousand dollars.  The legs on this table are darker which I actually really like.  They look amazing in the space.  I'm still waiting for my large artwork so when that is in I will take the final photo's.

I'm really happy with this look for less.  The tables I purchased (I put two together) are really sturdy, and great looking!

Here is my plan for the more formal entry of the building.


I fell in love with the beautiful sofa immediately, and worked from there.  Without time to special order pillows I went with what the store sells as their look.  It is not what I would have chosen (the dark pillows on the sofa are deep purple), but after I found the navy leather chair I think it all works together really well.   It's funny how when you have to decide quickly you can actually make something look really great - even if it wasn't what you had in mind.  There were many times where I would like one thing, but it was not available so I had to go to choice 2 or 3.  It has all worked out though.  I did end up using that wooden bench that I have on the Office Entry Board in this area - so I have to search out something to finish off the Entry.  Things change and you just have to adjust the plan.  The biggest thing I have left to do at the building now is to get the rest of the art, and hang the art.  Plus that one piece of furniture.  Oh, and when I can actually see the top of the conference room tables again that will be great.  Right now they have them covered with telephones :)

So I have to get ready, and get to work!

Happy Monday.
