A Return to the classic kitchen table

Hi everyone~ How many of you jumped on the high top kitchen table trend?  I wouldn’t say my {first} husband and I are always at the forefront of a trend, but we were on the high top table’s 15 minutes of fame a couple years ago.  While participating in our neighborhood’s annual garage sale I casually put it out there to sell the table and was surprised my husband was on the exact same page. Neither of us liked the table and if it wasn’t for the garage sale, we may still be using it.   wasn’t conducive for long conversations after dinner. It was the happy hour of tables.  And, I have no pictures of it.  It’s like a former boyfriend – the photos of the table have all been deleted!  We knew we wanted to return to the classic kitchen table- the height that our Bernese Mountain puppy LOVES!  Here is the replacement table we found at World Market in late spring.

I found a similar version of our dining chair  at Pottery Barn starting at $399.  We were able to snag 5 dining chairs for under $500.

I am over my love affair with red.  I like a little bit, but at some point I decided every accessory in my TJ MAXX hoarder closet needed to be red.  Love this vase but the red clashes and just doesn’t say spring. The red vase was in need of an intervention so I updated it with [Read more…]
