Foyer Table

So our house should be done in about 2 weeks or so and I still haven't found the perfect table for our foyer.  
The foyer looks like this:
I am thinking of doing something like this:

Why is this table so hard to find for under $100?  I am wicked jealous of people who can go to thrift stores and garage sales and find treasures, because around here, I never find ANYTHING!

So that's my rant for the day.  Have a great week.  And let me know if you find this table!

Hanging Name Above Crib

I almost forgot...  I have been up to a few projects too!
Here is one I made for Teddy's Jungle Room!

They were originally white letters that I purchased from Pat Catans.   I spray painted them black, since his furniture is espresso and then took scrapbook paper, traced out the letters, cut them out (which I did twice for the T because I did it backwards) and Mod Podged it onto the wooden letter and over it a few times for a nice shiny glazed look.

I am still debating on what color ribbon to attach to it.  Any thoughts?
Oh, and did I mention his room is painted BRIGHT green??

This picture doesn't do the color justice.  It is Topiary by Glidden.  
It is actually a little bit darker now that the second and third coats are up.


It really looks nice with the Zanzibar bedding and accessories we already have from Babies R Us. We are also debating painting some animal murals on the wall. I can't wait to move in and set it all up!


Linking to this party!
