they've gone belgium

Anyone checked out the new line at Restoration hardware? They've gone Belgium on all of us.

And I'm not talking about waffles.
I love it all. But it's like a secret love affair with something I can't afford...nor would I really purchase it even if I could afford it...or save up the moolah to make it happen...
I kind of think things have lots more charm when they're handmade, or salvaged purely by you, and not mass produced. Even though they say these things are limited quantity to justify the price tag, coffee tables like these have been around for a while. I think they were even more expensive due to the to the trade stuff before RH picked them up.
I'm adding this to my list of projects, and it will be going somewhere near the bottom...but I am in LOVE with this coffee table. I first spotted one like it in the movie Baby Mama. Yes, I pay attention to design when I watch movies. And I love the industrial look.
So, I think I know a welder. Basic angles. Can't be that hard to make. Too bad sparks and fire and hot metal scare me or you just might catch me in the garage making pieces of my own with one of those sexy masks.
And in the not so near future, this coffee table would look INCREDIBLE in my living room...

Again, I'm not so sure it would happen in THIS house, since we DO have a coffee table, but this one does make me swoon. So, I'm storing this idea away...
to be continued!!!
*I'm trying something different with this site...every time I have a new post, I'm switching up the order of the pages so people will know it's there...that, and you can now easily access projects by clicking on links to the left.
So click around. It won't kill you. ;)
