Where to Put a Table
Did you ever wonder where to place a table? We seem to have too many small tables. They are not really very small - bigger than end tables, but smaller than a dining table
. They are nice and we don’t want to sell them or give them away. We have managed to find a use for all of them, but every now and then we change our minds and decide to put one in a different place.
When we are thinking of these things, we just wish the tables were small and we could put them by a chair or in a corner and they would look pretty and be a nice place to lay your book when you were finished reading. I can remember when we did not have enough tables. We just needed a nice small table to make things look pretty. When we finally could afford just the right table, we were so excited when we found it at a store. Now people can find almost anything at a store or on the web and see exactly how much they need to save before they will be able to buy it. Oh well, these are the good new days.
Lighting up a Room
Happy people light up a room. Beautiful furniture lights up a room. Beautiful lamps light up a room - literally. Today I am thinking of my granddaughter. She likes dolphins and has some pretty and some interesting items in her room. I found a beautiful dolphin table that would go so well with her decorations, but it takes up more space. It is a dolphin accent table. Maybe when she has her own house, she will still like dolphins and there will be room for that table. Anyway, I will keep it in mind. We have a nice accent table that we bought on a trip to Branson, Missouri. It has been moved around quite a bit and still looks new. It is a wooden table with geese hand painted on it. It will always be one of my favorite items and is easy to fit in most any room. The drop-leaf sides makes it fit easily wherever we need to put it. That is enough dreaming about pretty tables. Enjoy the holidays!
Display
Figurines are for display. Many of them mean something to us because of a special place we bought them or because we are collecting that particular thing. Why would we want to collect them and then not display them? Some people collect miniatures. Some people collect horse figurines, some collect raccoon figurines, some collect miniature cars. There are so many different things that can be collected that it would be impossible to name them all. Then when we have a special piece, we look around for the perfect spot to display it.
Some items fit best on a shelf. Some fit on a decorative table. Some items are moved around from place to place depending on our whim. Whatever the place you decide on, be sure to display your figurines. Expensive or inexpensive, each has a special story that is fun to share.
