What Would You Buy With a Gift Certificate to Merridian Home Furnishings?

If someone gave you a $500 gift certificate to Merridian Home Furnishings, what would you buy?

That’s the question I am asking myself, because I won that $500 gift certificate in a designer contest last week for showing off my fabulous Lansing Desk in my newly-organized office that I blogged about here.

I love Merridian because of the interesting pieces they carry and the great people who work there.  Maybe I should go for this aged blue blanket chest?  I could use it as a side table or maybe instead of a coffee table.

This carved wood mirror would look fabulous in the closet I am working on right now!  If you remember, I kicked Mr. Man out of the closet (so to speak) and am remodeling and organizing that crappy cedar closet.

Or, I could get a pair of these punchy tangerine lamps and still have $$ left over for some cool art or accessories.

I’m totally addicted to interesting chairs, so maybe I could get a Putney accent chair for my living room:

OOH!  I adore this patinaed and mirrored folding screen.  This would look great in my sunroom, and would keep the neighbors from seeing what television shows we watch at night!

So, what would you buy with a $500 gift certificate from Merridian Home Furnishings?  I’ll be at the 8th Avenue store in Nashville tonight (Friday, March 17th) for their Spring Clearance Kickoff Party.  There will be hors d’oeuvres and at least 15% discount on everything in the store.  Come on out and help me choose what to get with my gift certificate!

    I am in love with your owl wastebasket in your office. Where can I find one?!

    mary beth, i found that wastebasket at an estate sale! it was probably from the 1970’s, so maybe you could check ebay?

    How fun! What did you get? I love the tangerine lamp to. I think I would try to get an area rug.
