A Quandry

We are currently looking for land to build our new home. We are hoping the end result will look something like this:

Anyway, I am suppose to be looking for fixtures etc and all those good things that you need in a home, but I always seem to get distracted. I am not at all an opp-shopper. I don't like used second hand goods and have a real problem with needing things to be perfect. I'd like to like opp-shopping and I have really tried, but I just can't. A problem now starts as I keep finding and falling in love with: 
These two are just the start of a list of products that would go perfectly in our new home. However, they are not brand new and if they have a scratch or something on them, I will have an issue with them. What am I going to do?

so funny! i was the same until this year and i thought i just have to get over it and do it for the environment! Can you think of it that way??? why keep producing when there are already so many wonderful used products out there, that no one wants anymore? That being said I haven't really bought much at all... apart from videos for zac.. hmm

anyway.. i can see why you love those two products! Scratches make character! (i struggle with perfectionistic qualities too)

as for the house... those pics are hot! if you end up living in something like that i will be 1. jealous and 2,. flying up to live with you. I don't mind bunking in with Piper!

ok i'll shuttup now. It is 4.30am and I am going back to bed!
