squared away

I have a client who I love. I've known her for years and years and she is one of the most vibrant people I know. We're in the process of redoing a room in her home and although most of the process has flowed pretty smoothly, we were hung up on one very big item, a coffee table. 

We were not searching for just any coffee table, we were searching for a square coffee table. 

I don't know how many of you have ever sought out square coffee tables but I am here to tell you that the ratio of rectangular coffee tables to square is about 5 million to 1. We had narrowed it down to a couple of options we liked, but none that we loved. Until today. 

Today I was out shopping. Today I went into a store that was the last place I would expect find a fabulous beyond fabulous coffee table. I was wandering the isles when I spied it, something square, some thing black, something textured. Intrigued I looked closer to discover an amazing faux snakeskin black parsons style coffee table for a price you would not believe . I about fainted right then and there. The said table will be delivered to the client tomorrow and I cannot wait to see the look on her face. 

The moral of the story is, sometimes you find exactly what you are looking for in the last place you would expect to find it, and sometimes you get a deal too!
