A worthy obsession?
I am a little obsessed with these lacquered numbers! I want them SO bad and I am in the early stages of hatching a plan to get my hands on em!!
I have NO idea what the quality is like – and if in fact they ARE worthy of my obsession - but its a wooden box, its red , its lacquered = the odds look good!!
The problem is, they are from Crate and Barrel – a store we don’t have that store here in Australia so getting my hands on them will be a lil trixty and take a bit of sweet talking on my part! The current exchange rate isn’t in my favor – so is it even worth it? Its a risk to take when its only one studio pic I have seen. Are they worthy of my love?
I really only even know of Crate and Barrel through the blogosphere and by it featuring once in an episode of ‘Friends’: Rachel had bought a coffee table and was pretending to Phoebe that she bought it from a flea market. OH I’m sure you can imagine the hilarity that followed! (um – recently watched re runs!!)

Do you have a Ross or TJ Maxx kind of store? What if you bought a plain box and spray painted it high gloss red?
Just a thought!

Actually, the boxes, are really cute. But, it wasn’t Crate and Barrel on Friends, it was Pottery Barn. I’m completely obsessed with that show. I say go for the boxes though!

not such a bad idea Erin! Though I am a bit impatient and when I spray paint I don’t get the sweet finish that someone else would!!!
