So Expensive
Domestics

Paging through Dwell I found this gorgous tv console table.

It's beautiful, I feel in love! Then I looked it up online and found the price. :(

Why?!! I say Why???!!!!!????

Because Dwell is the pimp of fine furniture. It should be used as a source of inspiration only, a jumping off point.

I mean, the magazine started with eight-odd million in the black! No magazine starts with that kind of budget. Tear a page and the magazine would bleed money.

It looks like it has sort of an asian feel. You might want to look at Cost Plus or Pier 1 for TV tables/cabinets with a similar feel. They are usually much cheaper than what that one costs.

*sighs* Yes I know that Dwell shows mostly high end stuff. But who in their right mind spends $6000 on a tv table. I do understand some level of expense for quality, but really, thats INSANE!!!!!

Thanks for the store ideas Emily. I just checked both stores out online and found one coffee table we might consider, but sadly nothing else.

This console is what currently what we are considering getting, and I do really love it, I'll be quite happy with it. Its taller than most other ones which is something we like the idea of.

Its just that the other table was SO SO pretty!
