Furniture shopping

The best shopping is the window shopping you do to get ideas for tax-refund money that has not yet arrived. 

I need new (and matching! How grown up!) beside tables to go under my new (and matching! How grown up!) lamps. 

We braved IKEA on Saturday afternoon (I still think they should sell I SURVIVED IKEA ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON T-shirts). And I think I found the ones I want (and a million other things), but we decided to go to a regional mega-chain just to see what they have. 

This is a place with HUGE furniture. And chairs that are motorized to help you stand up. And coffee tables that reach up so that you can eat your meals and do everything but poo while you plant your ass on the couch (and I'm pretty sure that's in the works). 

I took pics of things that made me laugh. 

Like this... "sculpture." It's fake plastic beer. 

It ain't cheap. 

 

And here's a super-fancy cosmopolitan big-city New York grouping... 

For someone who's never been to New York. 

Love this heinous Roman column dinette set. Check out the zebra and weird handwriting chairs.

Here's an insane snowball lamp. Adjust the balls for your lighting needs!

Peace for sale. 

But I saved the best for last.

I call it HOLLY HOBBY THROWS UP.
