finally....

TA DA!

The tv finally has a happy home 24 inches off the ground. This is our brand new "media Console" from Target. At almost $300 I thought this piece was WAY too expensive. However, when we finally decided to purchase it Target was running a 15% off and free shipping promotion. After we added in our additional AAA discount, we knew it was a great deal.

When looking for a TV stand we had a really hard time finding something that met all of our criteria.
1. I wanted something wood, with doors. I was tired of looking at tons of messy wires behind our old stand that just had open shelving.
2. It needed to fit our giant surround sound receiver. Measuring over 17 inches long, 6 inches in height and super deep it was hard to find centers with those shelf dimensions.
3. Fit all of our other junk! We needed storage space for not only the receiver, but the cable box, DVD player, wii and other games.

This stand fits everything with room to spare! The best part?? You can leave all of the doors completely closed and still operate the cable and other electronics inside. Remotes go right through the lattice!
Along with our TV stand we decided to get the matching coffee table. We scored this guy already on clearance. Adding in our additional discounts made it a steal as far as coffee tables go!


Both pieces are incredibly sturdy and I just love the lattice design.



Our other newest decoration in the great room? This GIANT plant from James' Grandma!!

It looks fabulous in the corner of our great room that we have been wondering what to do with for the time being. Let's hope I can keep this alive!
