Furnishing A Home...

We have a new (and more longterm) place - and we are stoked about it!  So mom's coming up from Portland with all our wedding gifts (woohoo!!!) and we're on the mad hunt for furniture and things to make it homey.  Thing is, Kelowna's not the place to buy anything, let alone already expensive furniture.  So, I think we should make our own coffee table and end tables... Mark's not so keen on the idea... we'll see :-)


Check out this fab bookshelf from Pottery Barn!  Doesn't it look great?!  
And easy to make?! (Maybe???)

And picture this as a coffee table... looks good, right?  Thing is, wood's expensive.
But we can't find any inexpensive furniture or stuff we like! Yikes!  
So here's to getting creative I suppose :-)
