I  took these pictures because I just received a furniture piece that I had custom made to my specifications from a little gift shop that I work at  that also makes furniture.   It is a square coffee table.   I am ecstatic how it turned out!   The quality is so much nicer than some of the "junk" you see at the furniture stores!     Notice the 52"HDTV in some of the pics.  My husband WON that recently.     Since there was no place to put it, we had to use our "formal", sunken-in living room!   I think it puts this area to good use and has actually made it alot cozier!    ~Ronda

Wow Ronda, the table is LOVELY!!! I really like the white trim with the natural insert center and the metal accents. VERY pretty!! And it looks fantastic with your living room - which is immaculate! Such pretty colors in there. What a beautiful home you have!!!!

Gosh Ronda that table is lovely!  It looks perfect in that room which certainly is immaculate! How do you keep it so tidy and that light colored sofa so clean with 2 kids in the house!  I just spent 30 minutes vaccuuming up an explosion of confetti that my kids got at the parade yesterday!  From what I can see you have a truly lovely home.

Wow Ronda what an amazing table to accompany your lovely living room.  I really like the color choices you've made.  I wish I had your knack for keeping things tidy.

And the coffee table has a shelf under it. Yahooo. Do you know how hard this is to find. I like a place to stuff stash and I want one with a shelf under it.

Your living room looks so airy and open. I love it.

Thanks so much everyone!  I have  very "ecclectic" taste.   I am hoping to get a new sofa set in the near future...but my husband wants to "wear this set out"! Fine by me,...I hate it! It is a little dated!    When I get a new sofa set ...you know what that means!! New windowcoverings/blinds, and repainting.   Wink We did that faux finish not too long ago and worked our A$$ off doing it (I did the faux finish-my husband set the tape marks) so I am not ready to change that yet!   

WM....I know the perfect place to order a table just like it........hehehe...

I worked at that shop for a few hours today.  It helps me pay for a few items that I am "eyeballing" there! icon_cyclops_ani

Snooper...yes, you got it! My husband won that TV because he did some marketing for a local t.v. station.  (15 second commercials for his Automotive shop)............  We had no idea that the TV would be so nice too!  (Toshiba)  WOOT!    ......that is why we just got Direct TV!   He looooves it!   Gosh, now if I could just win some diamonds!!LOL! toothy4~Ronda

You chose the perfect table to compliment your furniture. You can tell that you work really hard to keep it so pristine. I wish I was so tidy! I have piles! But I know exactly where everything is in my pile! My husband is the neat freak. When he can't take it anymore he waits till I am at work then goes through my piles and completely ruins my system. Then I can't find a single thing!

Nothing wrong with having piles!  I think everyone should have there own space to do what they need to do!   This area in my house is my "formal" living room.   I have other areas that aren't so immaculate.   My husband is doing a little updating in one of my bathrooms that involves removing wallpaper, tiling, drywall, and painting.  Amazing how such small projects can create such a disaster!!    ~Ronda

Ok, Ronda, do you have a link of the things you have been eye balling???  angel c'mon, I know you do:)

Yes, how dare your hubby win that when  you didn't win diamonds...

I love how the table has little drawers where you can organize or "hide" things.

  Snooper...I wish she had a website.  I worked at the little shop yesterday!  It is called Addie's Attic!  Just a charming little shop to work at.  I love to decorate so the owner let's me do what I want when I am there!   Along with furniture that her husband and her dad custom makes, they have all kinds of gifts/housewares/decorations/floral items/ candles/pictures and some novelty items like "Webkins" which are all the rage right now!   It is a great break from my house cleaning jobs! ~Ronda

You are definitely a brave and clean woman to share pictures of your living room!  I am afraid that mine would look like a snowstorm had hit from all of my cat's hair!!!! 

The table is lovely, as is the whole room.  Such fun to have a piece that is meaningful because you helped to create it!  I love your "Tiffany" lamp too!  I used to have one but movers broke it.  Still want another.

And wow on that TV!!!!!!  Super bowl Sunday must have been packed at your place!!!

Actually we did Super Bowl at my brother in laws house since we were not set up with Direct TV yet! 

I got the Tiffany Lamp from a seller on EBay!  I really like the quality of it...but if I had to do it over again, I would buy one in person since the colors did not ring true to the picture listing!   OH well...live and learn!~Ronda

I love your table Ronda!!!  It's perfect for that room.  I am so excited to sell the house we're in right now (expecting an offer tonight) and get some new furniture for the new house.  Although, FI doesn't know that's the plan yet!  Wink

Ronda what a charming room that is - i'm in awe that you have two kids and the room looks perfect!!

Sweet table - love having things made to exact specifications, you get just what you want.

No fair on the TV winning - maybe you should do a TVSS (TV sneak sale) and get something sparkly...teehee...
