I have to gush and thank Kirsten from 6th Street Design School. Did you see her post about this? It looks an awful like the Ballard storage bench:
{amelia storage bench $399-$591 from ballard designs} The one Kirsten posted about is from K-Mart for only $99. it is part of their Country Living line. Having just experienced stitches on my two year old, we vowed to ditch the lifelong dream of a beautiful, wood coffee table or trunk. So I immediately perked up and thought, “I want that!” I literally went to the website and pushed “add to cart.” So not like me, and yet so glad I did. I have never purchased anything from K-Mart, but let me tell you . . . . I love this beauty. It arrived today and it’s great. I plan to paint the little bun feet dark, but other than that, it is exactly what we needed. And with a two and four year old cruisin’ around the place, the price point of $99 was super attractive. Here she is:
So after some dark stain or paint on the feet, it will be perfect. Who knew K-Mart had such cute things????
Yes, it looks fabulous. Who knew? I have a KMart near me but never go in… wonder if they have it in store.
Omg I want to order that, it is fabulous!! It looks so good in your den! I wonder if they still carry it? I never venture in Kmart but maybe now I should!
I saw Kirsten's post and couldn't believe it! I so want one!! Is your #2 pillow from PB? We have all four (1-4) in our Master Bedroom. One for each of us. I also have their numbered napkins!
It's fabulous! Love seeing your tree in the background. All the K-marts closed around here but I think they have one in LA by my sister n law….
OK wait, I don't need anything else right now…I'll just look at yours 🙂

Wow! That is such a great piece at an even better price!
Courtney, that is such a steal. I love the nailhead trim. We have a huge ottoman coffee table for that same reason….the little ones. The storage in yours is just great!
Great find! I actually like the KMart version more than the Ballard, go figure.
I don't even know where a Kmart is? Now that I know they have such nice things I might have to check it out. We've been through staples and stitches a couple of times. Neer fun.

that is from kmart?!?! wow, never would have guessed! your room looks gorgeous, i love it 🙂
It looks like it was meant for your living room! Perfect size, the fabric looks really nice and of course I love the nailhead trim! Might need to consider that for the end of our bed! Super cute pillows on the couch too!
Hey, I have that green trellis pillow!! I love those pillows. They look so cute in your living room. I don't think I had seen your living room before. I love the storage bench in there too. Looks great!
That looks beautiful in your living room. It's perfect! I've been looking for something like that for the foot of our bed. I never have checked out KMart. Sorry about your two year old needing stitches. This was a good choice for a table. Your tree is gorgeous all decorated, Courtney! Where did you find your gree trellis pillow?
Great bench. I love the nailhead trim. Agree with darker feet but it looks great and for kmart, amazing find!
I haven't bee in a KMart in a while, but apparently I need to visit one! I LOVE that bench! Never would have guessed in a million years that was purchased at KMart…gotta love a good deal : )

Found your blog from Kristens post- I love this little bench, I'm thinking I might I need one for myself too 🙂
Very nice! What is the fabric…a linen looking fabric or a cotton?
It looks like a really great piece; is that linen? And it's perfect in your room. What a find!
Great find! Looks really good.
I agree, it looks fabulous in your home. And my first thought was "Oh Id definitely be painting those feet darker." Guess you beat me to the thought:) Love it!
I just got a faux leather ottoman from Walmart that the top turns over into two trays. Very functional adn I love it in our living room. This one looks much more classy though:)

That's amazing! I'm going to get one of these for the foot of the bed in our guest room! It's a dead ringer for the Ballard Version!
Nothing is better than a great deal on something great! (c: And at the kmart price, you don't have to freak out about the kiddos being around it! Although, if I'm being honest, I probably still would…(c:

I also found your post from Kristen blog…what a GREAT piece and at that price point!!???!!! Just fantastic! I would never have guessed K-mart!
looks great! I saw that last week when she posted it, what a great steal!
Really cute. How do you think the fabric will hold up to tiny hands?
Thanks for all of the nice comments about my bench! It's linen and I plan to scotch guard it tomorrow! The kiddos are in the habit of washing their hands after eating or drinking anything so I am going to keep that up! Fingers crossed.
Gorgeous! I saw the bench online and wondered about the quality… but now I'm sold. Ordering ASAP!
Don't know how I missed this post, but Wow! Your bench looks great Courtney! I love Walmart, shhh.
