The Importance of Coasters

The importance of coasters.  Now that’s a first world problem if I ever heard one! My mother was always so fanatical about putting drinks on coasters. It’s probably why I rebelled and held out for so long. Just to be the opposite of her (I know I have mummy issues but my mother makes Adora from Sharp Objects look like June Cleaver.)

However, I recently bought the most gorgeous bedside drawers (I truly am in love with them) and an incident caused me to have a bizarre out-of-body experience.  My wonderful son decided to bring me a drink and all of a sudden my mothers voice burst from my lips. It shrieked ‘Not on the drawers, it will leave a ring!’ In that moment I had to do the one thing I have always hated more than Brussel sprouts.  I had to admit my mother was right about something. Oh the horror!

So I finally grew up and put coasters in my house. Luckily we stock some great ones here at Brooklynn Place and you know I can’t have anything in my house unless it’s monogrammed so I chose the natural wood coasters because they match everything else.

I am very happy with them. And I am NOT turning into my mother. I swear!
