Today we're lucky to have a guest post from DesignShuffle.com about my recent passion for anything industrial. I hope you enjoy Suzi's article as much as I did!
I’m Susi and I write as a guest blogger for
DesignShuffle.com, a fabulous social media site that
promotes interior designers and their work from around the world. My writing focuses on things I'm
passionate about: interior design,
decorating ideas, home furnishings, gardening, travel and art. I get to look at gorgeous things all day and write about them. I'm a very lucky girl.
I am excited to be guest blogging here at The Whole Shebang. Emily asked me to write an article about industrial tables and I am excited to share my finds with all of you. Have you noticed this trend in magazines, blogs and stores? Weathered wood tops and industrial metal bases ending in casters are typical for industrial tables. Sometimes the tables will be all metal or all wood but have a distinct industrial or factory feel to them. These are great workhorse tables that can definitely stand up to the daily rigors in a kitchen, entry or living room. Here are some pics highlighting industrial tables. What do you think? Love? Hate? Own? Want?

An industrial coffee table works well with this traditional/eclectic décor. Industrial chic can work with both cosmopolitan and rustic furnishings. Think industrial tables are a passing fad or will they become one of those
living room design ideas with staying power?

An industrial cart can make a great console table for an entry or portable table in the home office. We love the large casters on this black painted metal table.
Urban Outfitters via
“New” industrial pieces can be found at a number of retailers. Look for simple wood tops, metal bases and casters.

This kitchen is full of industrial chic touches, like the metal chairs and bistro table. But what really caught our eye was the industrial table used as a console table or buffet.

This new table, from West Elm, has the feeling of a French industrial table with its metal base and white marble top. So is an industrial table going to become one of your must-have
kitchen design ideas?
