Living Room Update - New Coffee Table!

It is no secret that I am a tad bit obsessed with Pottery Barn.  Everything in that store is absolutely amazing!  Even my husband enjoys going in there - shh, just don't tell anyone. :) There are days when I walk in there simply for inspiration knowing full well that I will come out empty handed.  Torture? Emotionally yes, financially no.  However, I make it a goal of mine to find a similar look for less, after all, I am a bit of a bargain shopper.  Case in point, our new coffee table.

You may recall from my very first post (here) that wanted to replace our existing table with something more "us".  We purchased this table shortly after moving in to our new home nearly three years ago.  I wasn't fully convinced about the look but purchased anyway (lesson learned - if you don't love it, don't waste your money).

Once we purchased our new table, the old one quickly made its way onto Craigslist.  Surprisingly, the old table received great response and sold quickly. 

While buying a similar table from Pottery Barn can cause financial strain or bankruptcy, this one from World Market was an amazing deal.  I was beyond thrilled when we spotted this table a few months ago, it was exactly what our little home needed.  I quickly fell head over heels with the look and my husband with the
price, it was a win-win for us. :)

This table not only fits our style better but it offers a nice warmth to the room.  It is amazing how a simple change can make such a difference in the feel and look of a room.  I just need to work on a few accessories and this table will complete.  Please feel free to send me suggestions on ways to "dress" our new addition, recommendations are welcome! :)
