On a recent trip to TJ Maxx in search for a gift for Mr. Incredible I came across this beauty. This accent bench caught my eye and I was spellbound by the fabric. Isn’t it wonderful?

I stood in the aisle like a zombie for what seemed like half an hour. I rubbed my hands up and down the bench, sat on it, stretched my body across it and basically fondled it repeatedly.

Yes, people stared. But I didn’t care. I searched my mind for the perfect spot in my home to place this piece of furniture. Alas, I found none. This past year I organized a major home decorating project. I redecorated 5 rooms in my home and now I have no space to add anything. This bench just won’t fit with the current decor.

Sadly, I left it in the store, but I’m spending time reorganizing things in my house to make this bench fit. I MUST have it!
