The Look for Less

Just had to share my latest budget-friendly find. As you know, I'm sprucing up my basement this winter. This is the design board I created with the vision I have for the space.



Notice the weathered brass end table?

Arteriors Santiago Iron End Table

Price: $756


Now, I was not really considering spending nearly $800 on an end table for my basement that will likely be completely abused by my children. I just liked the look, and figured maybe I'd find something similar.

Well, I did…


Threshold Metal Honeycomb Accent Table


Price: $63.99

I was perusing the aisles of my beloved Target, and this little gem jumped right out at me. It was marked down from an original price of $79. Score!


If you're in the market for an accent table in a weathered brass finish, run to Target. They'll hook you up.

Now, I haven't seen the Arteriors version in real life. Perhaps it is a solid iron piece, unlike my hollow Threshold table. Or maybe it's solid gold.

But, for my purposes, I'll take the look for less.

Have you scored any looks for less lately? I'd love to know.

TGIF, friends!! Let's get this weekend started...

  2. That is a great looking piece. What a great looking table for the money! I was thinking TJMaxx and then realized you said Target. I can't go back to Target this week- I was just there and bought out their "baby girl" department so my hubby has banned me! lol xo Diana
