Lack Table Lookalike?

Yesterday I went to Target to get paper towels, and left with an over flowing shopping cart full of stuff that I wanted needed.

I’ve been debating bedside tables for my super hero’s bedroom, and decided to look around the furniture section at Target to see if they had anything affordable that would fill the space.

I was about to leave when I came across this little table. It was only $15!

So I tossed it into my already loaded chopping cart.

It came wrapped in plastic and the legs come with screws attached.

So like the sticker on the front says, “no tools needed!”

It really isn’t a complicated assembly project, so it was up and in use in under 5 minutes.

It has a max load capacity of 48 pounds according to the directions, which I personally don’t believe. It’s very light, and although it is sturdy, I’d be nervous if my little one (at 36 pounds) decided to stand on it for too long.

Overall, for 15 dollars, it is pretty much what I expected it to be. There are a few spots where the faux wood strips are already starting to peel back, and I’m not sure if that’s because I wasn’t careful about the one that I chose, but regardless, I don’t expect this to last long. Maybe a year or 2, and that isn’t bed for the price. For the moment though, it does what I need it to do, and it’s kinda cute.

That’s all for now. Talk to you in the next one!

Room Reveal: Partially Finished

Here is the progress I’ve made in the super hero’s bedroom. I decided to take pictures while it was clean, but as soon as I entered, so did my lovely little mess maker.

So, on my to do list:

- add a rug

- build or buy a nightstand

- paint walls

- remove the Buzz Lightyear stickers

- make and hang some art (super hero squad characters were requested)

- paint the inside of the cabinet…or maybe not…well probably not

- add more toy storage and get rid of more toys

- add some type of a window treatment

- write on the calendar

- play with my little boy

I actually crossed the last two items off before I posted this. I got to be Superman and beat Batman in a race. Yup. What did you accomplish this morning?

That is all. Talk to you in the next one!

Starting to take shape

This room has come a long way since we first moved in. I have to say, I’m happy with the progress that I’ve made. I still have a way to go, but I think I’m beyond the halfway finished point now. And then, on to my bedroom…(cue thunder, lightning and scary horror music.)

This is just a sneak peek. I’ll do a more in depth reveal of the progress tomorrow. Goodbye until then!
