My kitchen table found at auction!!!

Happy Monday friends!!!!.....

I wanted to share one of my favorite items in the beach house....my kitchen table....after months of looking, I got just what I wanted....an old chunky pedestal base with an equally old table top!!!....they were not found together, but by swapping the top for a larger one and using paint and stain to get just the look I was going for...it turned out like this.....

I love round tables...they are great for games, conversation and you can fit so many people around them!!

Isn't this pedestal so chunky and fabulous???

I bought the 6 chairs from Ballard Designs....they actually were reasonably priced!!...sometimes you need to treat yourself....

I picked up that cute little crocheted table runner from a tag sale...been thinking that a burlap runner would be great on there instead....

OK, I paid $14 each for these fabulous counter stools that match the Ballard chairs at The Christmas Tree Shop...can you believe it???...I'm kicking myself for not getting a few extras....now they don't sell them....boohoo....

Love the distressed finish on the pedestal and apron...

OLD, CHUNKY AND FABULOUS!!!!....SO WORTH THE WAIT!!

Thanks so much for stopping by....
