revolving home decor
My home is constantly in a state of change. I like to think it comes with the territory.
The latest being a new dining table.
I have always thought our dining room being more square than rectangular was best suited for a round table. But when you already own a table that you love it can be hard to justify a new one. That table was purchased some 10 years ago but to this day I still love it....antique English floor boards were used to make the table top.
The rustic, vintage vibe that resulted was my ideal
(and still is).
I was ready for a change and so...
Merry Christmas to me!
I love the way my caned-back, grey faux suede covered chairs look around the distressed pine topped pedestal table. Can you see the grey-ish distressing around the tables circumference?
I was right, round is much better and a friend gave me great advice....have a carpenter make an additional, round top in the event you wish to seat 10 or 12 at the table. Two pieces of plywood hinged together to make a 72" round piece do the trick. all in due time!
***Stay tuned for more to come on the take 2 on my old dining room table. I tell people all the time, "if you love something you will make it work" and I did just that.
