emcap Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Have to shout it somewhere - I'm so excited! We found a new school table on craigslist to replace our 6' folding buffet table. This new table is the same length, a little wider and oh so much sturdier. It is a simply gorgeous 1940s library table with two deep drawers. The wood is so solid and the top is, I don't know how to describe it or what the technical term is, but the grain along the top is all matched together. It is stained a deep red with wood grain showing through right now and it's beautiful, but when I redo it when the weather is warmer I'm going with turquoise stain (still want the beautiful grain showing through)! It has square tapered legs with brass shoes. It's important to me to have a nice table because we school in our eat in kitchen and it is open to the rest of the house. Thanks for listening, just had to squeal with glee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KristenR Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Good for you! :hurray: Fun stuff like that always gets me excited! I still touch my laminator and paper cutter lovingly every time I walk by. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emcap Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Thanks everyone! I think my hubby is tired of hearing how much I love it so I needed a place to let it out. Who would better understand than a bunch of homeschoolers?! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
