Santa's helpers...help me find something!
OK, I'm having a little trouble here. I'd RATHER find this in a store where I can get it in person (East coast, I live in Virginia) because of shipping costs.....
Santa is looking for a WHITE children's table and chair set for Addison's room. It has to be white, without any exciting characters or designs on it. We would use it for a long time and it will match her other major furnishings in her room if it is generically white. Prefer wood or wood and some veneers. Most stuff is not ALL wood anyway. Chairs, we only really need 2 chairs and a table. Table can be any shape...rectangle would work best but round or square not out of the question! So folks... help me out if you have ANY suggestions!! Thanks in advance.... Mommy Santa, aka Jen ![]() PS...anyone ELSE having trouble locating something, maybe we can network...POST IT here!! |

I love Pottery Barn Kids... I did a search for tables and chairs, looks like there are two and they come in white, primary or pastel colors. Will email you the link.

You could always paint one that is a wood tone. Spray painting is really quite easy
If I see one I'll let you know.

If you have an unfinished furniture store in your area, you may find a great deal. And, those places seem to have a pretty good selection of wood tables and chairs. You may be able to get the store to paint it for you if you needed. Potterybarn kids is also a good suggestion.

Jen we have a store here in our town that sells furniture that is unfinished. They have the cutest little tables and chairs but they must be painted. The good thing about it is that because they are unfinished and require that you finish them how you want they are pretty affordable. Do you have a store like this near your?

Sometimes giant stores like Costco have items like this at Christmas time. That's where we bought our daughter's table/chairs for her playhouse about 3 years ago. Also, specialty children's stores usually stock a lot of different sets. They could be on the pricier side though. I agree that the ones from PBK's are too cute for words.. Have you seen the pink refrigerator/stove/sink ?? SO CUTE!!

Jen,
Try Target. I know that may sound crazy...but, I swear I saw a set there that looks a lot like the ones that you get at PBK and a lot less $$$ Just a thought! I just went to Target.com and click on furniture...then kids...there are several different styles there! Very affordable too!

Find a furniture store that sells "coaster company" imports. They will have access to basic, inexpensive stuff...AND Coaster sells all over the US. Just call the stores in your area and ask if they carry Coaster. The ones who do will know where to get what you're looking for.

IKEA has a very nice unfinished wood table and two chairs that can be painted or stained for $39.99. I've seen it in person and it appears to be good quality and gets great reviews on another board. It's on their website under Children's IKEA / Children's Furniture / Small Furniture
