“The Tide is High, but I’m Holding On…”

When the phone rang yesterday, I was so happy to see that it was the furniture store calling where we had purchased our daughters bed.  We had ordered it nearly a month ago and were promised arrival within 4 to 6 weeks.  The time was here!  Yay!  “Hello“, I answered excitedly.  “Hi, this is (name of furniture dealer).  We just wanted to give you an update on the bed that you ordered.  Looks like it should arrive early May“.  What?  Early May?  But that’s 4 more weeks!  I wasn’t sure how to handle my disappointment, so I tried to focus on the positive.  Four weeks would give me plenty of time to finish the curtains, hang the rod, and figure out a closet storage solution.  You see, all of this was suppose to be finished by now – so really, the delivery delay was a good thing.  Later that night, I ventured online to Stanley Furniture’s website to visually remind myself what I was waiting for.  While there, I explored their Coastal Living collection…

Here are some of the fabulous fabrics offered in this collection.

Ok, I guess I can wait a little longer.  While my daughters bed is not from the Coastal Living collection, it is a cottage/beach theme from Stanley’s line of youth furniture.
