Ta Ta Lack!

When I first moved into my apartment, I had not a single scrap of furniture. So I went to Ikea for some starter furniture until I could figure out what I wanted to do. Some of the Ikea stuff has been given away to brothers, doormen, friends etc…. But some of it has stuck around quite a while eventually blending in with other furniture.

I am finally moving on up beyond the Lack coffee table. I had some brilliant ideas about painting it, or wallpapering it in white python embossed vinyl, but at the end of the day, the thing is such a rickety piece of crap that I just couldnt see putting anymore effort or money into it. For $39 dollars it has served me quite well, but its over now. (I still have the pink lack side table and shelves in my daughters room, but I like those.)

The Lack table was much beloved by the editors of Domino and Ikea hackers everywhere…

So here are my thoughts on the idea of "copying" each other... If I post a photo from Domino, Elle Decor or anything else like that - unless I dug it up from 100 years ago or something- no need to source back to me! BUT if I post my house, my grandma's house, my friends house... you can and should leave a link! Cool?
