Look what I got!!!!

I just can't believe I finally got a gorgeous antique drop leaf table. I have wanted one for years. It's a maple bird's eye gate leg table with 6 ladder back rush seat chairs. It is in beautiful condition! The lady I bought it from had purchased it over 30 years ago and taken very good care of it. Our dining room is very small and I had a farm table that I had custom made a few years ago and it is very nice, but took up too much room. The drop leaf table is perfect. It is only 19" wide when the sides are down. I wanted something that wouldn't take up so much room, but would be big enough for family dinners. This has two extra leaves with it too. Even though we are about the remodel our kitchen and dining room and will have the extra room, I couldn't pass this up. Isn't it beautiful!!

Long overdue

It's been a really long time since I've posted anything to my blog. Lots of things going on and many changes in my life. I got laid off a few weeks ago after 14 years. It's hard to get used to all this free time. :) But, if you're going to be out of work, Spring and Summer is the best time. I haven't quite decided what I'm going to do yet, but thinking about going back to school. On a good note, we are going to remodel our kitchen and work begins in another week. Hopefully I will be able to post the progress here. I've been contiplating over and over about the layout and colors. It's enough to drive you crazy, but I think I finally have decided. Does a woman ever really decide??? Here is a pic that I used as inspiration.





We are doing open shelving along the wall where the sink will go. I ordered the farm sink the other day and it just arrived. This is so exciting! I can't wait until the construction begins.

Hope everyone has a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend!! Post later.....
