Christmas Money Burning a Hole in My Pocket!

Yesterday I had some time to kill and some Christmas money that was burning a hole in my pocket!

I gave my Facebook followers a sneak peek yesterday afternoon of my purchases.

Two beautiful accent tables that have a distressed copper finish...and two lovely green glass lamps.



I had been watching these tables for a while now and yesterday when I went in they were marked down.






At that price I knew they would be going home with me.  I picked up two to add some symmetry in my living room.  I have never had two matching tables before.  In fact, I've never had two new tables before.  All my tables have been garage sale or road-side finds, so for me this is pretty exciting stuff!  







Here's a closer look at the lamp.  The shade I already had here from the mis-matched lamps I had in the living room.  They are a beautiful shade of green and they stand about 20 inches tall without the shade.
The lamps were marked $22.49 each but rang up at $13.49.  I originally only had purchased one, but after picking my son up at school, I popped back over to Target and purchased a second one.  At that price you really couldn't go wrong!



I am loving how they look on either side of the couch.  
Symmetry is not something that I usually strive for but in this case,
I am LOVING it!!



The green lamps help to pick up some of the other greens in the pillows.




Here is a shot of the tops of the tables - a great pattern!



Our local Target has selected Threshold items marked down up to 70% starting today.

Have you been shopping at Target lately?

  1. Excellent buy, I am in love with those lamps. Would you believe I have not yet been in the Canadian Target stores. There are none near me in ON, but I always go into the one in Port Huron, MI. I believe there is one in Hamilton where my son lives, so I will be checking that out!!
