X! Yes, more X Benches!

So, you all know that I am kind of obsessed with X benches.  Most are out of my price range, but I recently found a few reasonably priced ones that I shared here.  Well, imagine my surprise when I stumbled across some incredibly cute and inexpensive ones at Home Goods.  As I mentioned on Friday, I am a Maxxinista... I love love TJ Maxx, Home Goods and Marshalls!  

It was my first outing with baby, so I was having trouble carrying baby and taking photo (hence the bad photo), but so cute and look at that price tag!

If they had two of those tan ones... I might have been tempted to purchase.  Lucky for my wallet... they only had one!

I do love me some X benches.  Until next time....xoxo

F is for found! X Bench Options!

This one is from Nate Burkus!
Love you Nate!!!

So.... waaaay back when I wrote about X benches.  I love X benches.  The ones I found where kind of expensive, but I have been constantly been looking for a cheaper option.   I actually located a few.  The bargain hunter still wants them cheaper, but these are at least in my price range!

Neither of these options really go with my decor as is- but has that stopped me before?  If I could get one (or two) of these cheap enough.... I would certainly make it over!  One option is just to leave legs as they are and to recover.  This would work in my living room as an ottoman for our chair.  Or I would love to paint the legs white and recover the seat in something lighter that would coordinate in my master bedroom or guest room.

I stumbled across this one on Target!  At $80 it is not too expensive (although I am holding out hoping it goes on sale).

This one is from K Mart... yes, I said K Mart!  Hey, it is only $50!  Yes, ugly fabric, but has potential for better things.   Imagine that animal fabric gone and something sleeker in its place!   You could even paint the legs, white... black... a bold color... whatever.  

I think there might be an X Bench makeover in my future!  Do you have an X bench?  Share with me!  Until next time....xoxo

X marks the spot. X bench!

Okay, I am kind of obsessed with X benches. I want one.... well... I want two! I have yet to find a place where you can find an inexpensive version of this classic stylish spot for seating! When I know... you will know.

There are some options at Ballard Designs and Wisteria, but they will set you back $200 or so.

Here are so lovely inspiration photos of X benches. Love them!

Perfect as a nightstand, at the foot of bed, as coffee table, for extra seating in family room... and so much more! Get yourself one ... or two!

Until next time....xoxo
