Ok. Well my black lamp shade arrived today. I think it's a little too short. I do believe I'm going to change the harp out. It's royally bent anyhow. Notice the crooked shade. Fact - the small table is 20" tall. I think I'm going to change the harp out on the new lamp also and make it a bit shorter. Still obviously need a different shade. The CL lyre table is 22 1/2" Not much taller than the above table. Just checked my email and NEVERMIND IT'S GONE. :( Oh well. Fact - Round table height is 27"H x 22"W I think the black shade lamp looks too tall with the round table? Lamp is 34" I'd rather not part with that lamp. *Note I'm going to buy candle stick things for the arms. Here's a picture with the wingchair and table straight instead of at an angle. I think I like this better. After looking at these pics it's not perfectly straight but you get the idea. My thoughts were to keep the round table where it was in front of the window. Get a different table for beside the loveseat that's not quite as tall.? Does the room look cluttered? Thoughts?

Thank you Yvette. I am so happy to see that pic with the credenza. I will go on the hunt for more tables. I will measure the arms on the chair and take that into consideration. Not sure who the manufacturer of the sofa is but its sold at raymour and flanagan. Its called the Lenox. I am sure if you use their live chat they can tell you the manufacturer.

Thanks for all your opinions! A while back there was a thread on the conversations side about how hard it is to get rid of family furniture that has been passed down. I took it to heart and am going to lose most of it. My last house was full of family "antiques". My Grandmother's old school desk, chests of drawers....sooooo much stuff. My Mom's corner hutch is the one thing I want to keep. It's in perfect condition and the wood is beautiful. While I adore painted furniture, I just can't see painting it like cooper suggested. Maybe I just have a blind spot where this piece is concerned. DH is giving me all of Saturday. He will be my chauffeur in Chicago. We'll first go to the Toms-Price (nice furniture retailer)outlet store and then to a regular Toms-Price. I love shopping but I hate buying. Once I've made a decision on a large purchase, I always second guess myself. What should be pleasurable just ends up being stressful.

I folks. I haven't had a time to catch up with forum reading today. DH and I are on vacation in Charleston! What a beautiful city. I can't stay on the computer long, but I wanted to thank everyone for the great lamp suggestions. Nanny2a - I love that lamp! That just might be a winner, although it is more than I wanted to pay. So what do you guys thing of that one? Does it have a cottagey feel? I am through trying to match the one in the inspiration picture, but do want to stay with the feel of the room. I saw an alabaster lamp at Homegoods a few days ago. I'm going to look at it again when I get home. I know the shade was awful, but I could change that. My3Dogs, I want to take another look at the marble ones you found. I can't use the brass lamp I have, 'cause I only have one. Mom2Reese - that red lamp has a pretty shape, and I might end up having to paint, but I'm hoping to find one ready to plug in. Kimberly - here is a link to some of the pictures. There are other pictures of it on another sight. I can give those to you once I get home. Or google Carolina Jessamine Cottage Here is a link that might be useful: Cottage Link
