Antique Drop Leaf Table
You know what this means. I am one step closer to making my kitchen look like this inspiration picture. I haven’t yet convinced The Mister that a Polo Green kitchen is the way to go, but he also didn’t like this table when we saw it weeks ago in a local antique mall.
He’s modern, I’m traditional; with it’s turned, slender legs and apron front, this mahogany table said a whole lotta Jules and not much The Mister. I bought it Sunday using my super negotiation powers (on both the vendors and The Mister.)
But, The Mister is nothing if not a noble gentleman, and he admitted (without me asking him to) that it looks mighty fine underneath our kitchen window. It will look even better with a Polo Green backdrop, fully opened and drooping under the weight of a pile of yummy food for Christmas. I promise.
I love it, Jules. Like, “i wish it was mine” love it.
Droolworthy.
oh wow.. this table ultra classy. i dream of finding pieces like this. way to go!
awesome! I think I need a lesson from you to learn your special negotiation powers!
Oh, that’s a nice find.
Nice! You have me drooling over Polo Green btw. I’m this {} close to getting Greg’s cooperation in repainting my living room and I can’t get it out of my head.
PS- I’ll soon take pics of my grandmother’s antique bookshelf that I finally got in my house to share with you. I love old stuff!
OK Jules, I have to admit to you this, I have one right now and my Mr. thinks I need to get rid of it b/c I hardly use it, sooo now that I see you got one I don’t want to get rid of mine. I have my kids pictures on mine now, but I do like your idea of using it around the holidays, oh what this girl to do ??? I originally bought it at an antique store to put our chess game on top with 2 chairs on each side. AND than slowly and surely I loaded it with family pics. BTW love your idea on the polo green…sounds very yummy =)
i love it too and you’ve got me on the polo green bandwagon.
Ok I have a question…I can’t envision how this is a drop leaf table on this side that is showing…most drop leaf tables have two sides that drop right? My brain isn’t working..trying to grasp this. help…
