A couple years ago, when my hubby & I were touring a "dream home," I came across this stacked pillow tuffet from Bella Rose by Chateau's "Esmerelda" line:
And I fell in love!.........with the materials, with the tassels, with the style, but not with the price!
Over the next couple months, I came across the same tuffet in a few high-end furniture & decor stores.....and when I say high-end, I mean it was WAY out of my price range!
But I just couldn't get it out of my mind!
So I continued to check periodically, hoping that one day it would be mine.....you could say I was a tuffet stalker! My husband, knowing my obsession, even offered to try to make me one!
And then it happened! One day while visiting a local decor store, I came across it yet again, only this time something was different, this time it was on sale! Almost 70% off! I couldn't believe it! Although still a bit pricey, I just couldn't resist.....not after all of that! And I knew that even if we attempted to make it ourselves, the materials alone would be close to that amount!
So I grabbed it up, & loaded it in my car......a Camaro at the time.....I must have been quite a sight trying to get that thing to fit.....but I adjusted the seat, scooting it & leaning it back as far as possible, and then squeezed the tuffet in the front passenger seat.....smiling the whole way home!
And now it sits happily in my living room......
.......by our fireplace.......
.......where it typically holds a Gracious Goods tray & magazines.......
.......but also showcases the occasional seasonal decor.......
.......and when company comes, it adds a little extra seating as well.
And every time I look at it, I smile!
