"New" table

Hello friends, im really excited about my latest find. My "new" table embodies all that i know shabby chic to be. This is the real McCoy, u simply cant replicate the look.........I had to share.....

It's so chippy gorgeous, hope u agree. Til next time.......

It's a giveaway!

My BFF aka "The Shabby Chick" is hosting her first giveaway......Make sure ya go over and enter......Such a generous and gracious lady, stay awhile, and follow along for an extra chance at winning, ule love her beautiful blog......

You can find her button in my sidebar. Thanks Pattie, luv u lots! We really shoulda wore makeup that day huh? LOL

candybar at the register........

What's a girl to do? U all know how much i love my newly painted dining room table. Im really not looking to change the table, especially considering this one has only been in the room a matter of months.......

Just look at all it's shabby yumminess................but when i saw this beauty, i simply had to have it! Even though i have no clue what im gonna do with it. Where will i put it?? It was only a mere $50. Has anyone seen what these tables go for? Could i just leave it where it was, and simply walk away? I tried, so the answer's no on that one, lol.........She's a beauty......

I do plan on refinishing the top, and painting the apron and the legs in cream, or maybe a buttery yellow, or maybe aqua?

Well now, i guess the hunt for chairs is on.........Im thinkin cane back? Hmmm......................Joining Nicki for the first time............
