Kate’s birthday is next Thursday, and I haven’t had any really brilliant ideas about what to get her. I keep asking her, and other than telling me she wants one of everything at Justice, she’s not been too helpful. And as much as I’m dying to buy her one of these in every color, 
I’m still on the hunt for more ideas.
Today she mentioned that she’d like a table to replace the little Dora table & chair set we bought her several years ago (on clearance at Target for $12.97 – major score), because it’s gotten too small for her. She’s gotten a ton of use out of it, and she loves to write and draw and paint so much that I thought a new craft table might be the perfect gift.
I found some that I LOVE… there’s a really cute one from Land of Nod (that won’t let me save a picture… grrr!) for the low low price of $449, and check out this one (I love the paper roll over the top, and the storage areas below!) from The Container Store: 
which can be yours for a mere $375.
So.
Here’s the thing. I want a table like this (or at least with the same functionality), but I’d really not like to have to spend so much money.
Which is where you come in.
I’d love some ideas on where I could find a similar table that doesn’t cost a million dollars, or how I could take a cheaper table and create a similar workspace for Kate. Any thoughts?
