My Next Piece of Furniture

We need a few new pieces of furniture for the apartment. I still have stuff from back in my student days.

Sure there's IKEA, but Doug wants to go more upscale and check out some of the "grown-up" furniture places.

I found the perfect piece for a corner of the living room that needs a little je ne sais quoi to bring it to life. Understated and elegant, this has proved the test of time. I think everyone needs one of these. Thoughts?

Lovely! Of course you need one!

Yes. You should get it immediately. And then I'll swap you Bob the Buffalo and a walnut table for it. I'll even throw in two 24 inch tall urns with attractive leaf motif.

Definitely a step up from IKEA.

What every woman of taste needs! And as a woman of leisure, you could spend your days playing with it ;)

If I remember, I read an article about that thing some time ago where they said they thought every nook and cranny had been found when one day, after many years, someone stumbled on another little button that didn't look like one. When they pressed it, they found yet another hidden spot.

I'd swap my firstborn for Bob.

Theo, those hidden drawers are amazing, but imagine if you opened one and something was inside it? How cool would that be?!

Love it. It would look fantabulous next to my wine cabinet. ;)

Bob is definately a step up from IKEA, I think. Of course, he might be loathe to part from his buddy Buck the mule deer. You might have to take both of them. I will also throw in a a white tail deer head, along with enough antlers to craft your own chandelier, AND a record setting (in its day) rainbow trout. How about a rattlesnake rattle and four deer feet crafted into an attractive fishing pole rack? Mmm-hmm. Thinking now, aintcha sister?

I'll even throw in a copy of my future best seller, 'Decorating with Dead Stuff'. Autographed.

This is a once in a life time deal, so act now. Woman with truck standing by...

What about a deer foot gun rack? I've seen those at my local flea market.
