The Great Pool Table Debate!!!
So, if you didn't know already know, we bought a house! And fortunately for us, it came with a pretty awesome pool table!
Well, in the weeks
leading up to closing, there were more than a few conversations had about the
pool able....will it stay or will it go? Well, we ended up deciding that we'd
keep it through the summer and then sell it to get an awesome dining table to
bring home in time for Thanksgiving. Or. At. Least. That's. What. I. Thought.
Nooowww, hubs is
claiming that we are not "dining table people" and that we don't even
hang out with people who are "dining table people". He likes to point
out that our closest friends that we visit almost weekly have a designated
dining room and dining table that they never use. We've actually never sat at
it...in the two years we've known them. So I get his point there. BUT! The
interior designer in me won't let my dining table dreams die! This is all I can
think about!
Considering our dining
space is adjoined to the living space, I really feel as if we'd put it to good
use! But, if I just so happen to loose this battle, we do have an eat-in area
in the kitchen.
It's not huge, but it's
doable. We could still seat about six people in here...as opposed to being able
to seat up to 10 in the dining area. What do you guys think? Should I fight for
my informal "formal" dining area? Or just call the pool table a win
and let it go? I'd love to hear what you think!
