So I FINALLY found a pedestal table for my kitchen! I have been looking for FOREVER but with no luck (probably b/c I wanted CHEAP). My dear crafty friend, Beckey, spotted one at Goodwill last week for me and sent me pictures. It was $50 and came with 2 leafs ("leaves" even when you are talking about furniture? which is it?). Anywhoo, I wasn't supposed to leave the house b/c I had just had surgery, but Marty and I went to check it out. I was debating ($50 isn't expensive but this table needs more than just paint) until the guy who worked there said he would pay me to take it! haha! OK!!!! So I asked him to make me a good deal and I would take it right then. He did! $30! AND, b/c I am uber thrifty and like to save even just a few pennies, I cashed in on Goodwill's military discount (saved 10%). So for $28 I walked away with a new table to paint and recreate for my kitchen. I HAD a dining room at one point in my life, but it has been replaced with a baby grand piano SO I needed a smaller table to fit my kitchen. I am too cheap to buy new....not to mention I like painting and reinventing furniture....so this will be a fun before and after project for me. I am taking votes on color! I LOVE blue and green, but white is easy and classic and neutral. Input invited! :)
