Holy Goldness

Do you ever come across an image of a space that is so good it stops you in your tracks? So good it makes you consider selling and getting rid of everything in a similar space in your home just so you can completely recreate the look for yourself?

Because that just happened to me. I mean, I love my living room, but I think I love this one more. That gold coffee table and the gold wall decor and the white sofa and the patterned rug – I just can’t. The lamps and the side tables and the pillows – please!!! I don’t know what it is about this room that is making me need it, but I’m going to go with the gold coffee table. It’s just fabulous.

Well anyway, enough of my rambling, has this ever happened to you? Have you ever acted on it and actually recreated the look for yourself?

And if anyone knows more about the room, let me know! I found it on Pinterest which led to a tumblr without any information.

Coffee Tables vs. Cocktail Tables

Do you know the difference between a coffee table and a cocktail table? I didn’t either, don’t worry. I figured a coffee table was well, a coffee table and a cocktail table was essentially a bar table. But then I started seeing low tables in living rooms being referred to as cocktail tables and I had to do some investigation as to what the difference is between a coffee table and a cocktail table. And guess what? There’s no difference at all! They’re exactly the same thing.

I know you’re not supposed to fully trust Wikipedia, but I often do, especially when it sounds legit. Here’s what they have to say about the coffee table vs. cocktail table debate: “A coffee table, also called a cocktail table, is a style of long, low table which is designed to be placed in front of a sofa, to support beverages (hence the name), magazines, books (especially coffee table books), and other small items to be used while sitting, such as beverage coasters. ”

Makes sense, right? Both coffee and cocktails refer to beverages and depending on what time of the day you’re sitting at the sofa, it’s like that you’re sipping a coffee or a cocktail. (Or both!)

After reading Wikipedia, I headed over to Cymax and went through some of their coffee tables and cocktail tables and found the images above. As you can see, one has glasses for cocktails and another has a cup for coffee (or tea). So, the styling on these tables reiterates the fact that cocktail tables and coffee tables are essentially one in the same!

Well, after all that rambling, I’m glad I settled that! From now on, I’ll use the terms interchangeably depending on the time of day or what type of beverage I’m craving! How about you – what do you call these tables – coffee tables or cocktail tables?

A Modern Dining Table with Multiple Personalities

I came across this modern dining table on Trendir yesterday and I have to say, I’m really feelin’ it.

The base of the table is fairly traditional with it’s German oak structure and carved legs. But add that satin white painted cover and it’s like Two-Face from Batman. (Way better looking and not at all a villain, of course).

Oh, and also – it’s extendable! Which you probably already figured out from the images but that’s ok.

Made by Kisskalt, this table can be completely customized – larger, smaller, or they can even add the white modern cover to any existing table if desired.

What do you think about this modern dining table? Does it suit your personality(ies)??

Six Different Sets of Gold Flatware

Gold flatware seems to be quite abundant within table settings as of late. And that’s ok with me! Although I didn’t use to be a huge gold fan, I find myself loving it more and more. And gold flatware is no exception to that!

Since West Elm just rolled out a set of gold flatware of their own, it got me thinking about other sets out there. The West Elm option (#3) is amongst the most affordable that I found, but isn’t that what dreams are for?

So here they are:

1) Oneida Flatware 18/10, Alessandra Gold 5 Piece Place Setting
2) DIANE von FURSTENBERG “Night” 5 Piece Place Setting, Gold
3) West Elm Gold Flatware Set
4) Hammered Flatware Service
5) Rondo Gold Cutlery
6) Almoco Flatware

Have you seen any gold flatware elsewhere that may be worth our while? Do share!

Boksel Media Box

Materials: Boksel sofa table, USB-powered case fans, electric drill and large bits, furniture stain, screws and bolts, furniture feet Description: For a long time I've wanted to replace my old IKEA media center cabinet. Multiple times I've lingered in the Besta section but just couldn't imagine a solution that I liked. Last weekend we found the Boksel sofa table in the as-is section, which met almost all of my desires, but needed a few adjustments.
