My NEW new favorite…

27 August 2009

…chair. Remember when I wanted this one? Well, I’ve got a new favorite, and at an almost $1,500 discount (WOW!) to the Horchow version, Target wins. Check it out: they’ve got a wide variety of super cute upholstered options, and the reviews say the quality is more than worthy of the price. Only available online; purchase here.

Bonus! Target’s currently running a discount on furniture: spend $125, get 15% off. Furniture also ships for free. Every little bit helps!

I’ve always loved Lewis Carroll’s classic, and this board is loosely based on Alice’s adventures. Fancy cucumber sandwiches and ice cream in tea cups, anyone?
