let's table this.

it's time to talk about furniture.

namely, my aversion to the fancy kind. leather furniture is probably the worst thing that ever happened to comfort. and all-matching furniture is probably the worst thing that ever happened to an inviting room. stale. stale. stale. (does that statement count as negativity?? it's more like...a fact from my head...)

the point is. i plan to never have matching furniture. i'd be ecstatic if none of my kitchen chairs ever even match. i'll just pick and choose beauties i find at thrift stores and call it a happy day!

although i'd never pay this much for any piece of furniture without throwing up in my mouth a bit, here are examples of things that catch my eye:

(i'll one-up you, anthro, when i find stuff just as good without spending my life savings. got my eyes peeled.)

and just for kicks, i want this. but maybe with a different shade.
