Furniture Feature Friday – Link Party & Giveaway

The Feature:

This week, I have such a great furniture find, I decided to feature myself. In addition, I’ve been super busy and have not had a lot of time to look around the blog world for some great furniture pieces. My mom and I found this table a few days ago at a Salvation Army in Richmond. It was marked $49, which was a little high for us. As we were admiring it, a sales representative mentioned that it was 50% off of green tagged items, plus an extra 10% if we took it home with us. Bottom line, we ended up getting the piece for $18! I’m going to paint the base of it and add some glass knobs, but I love it and had to share.

I love the patina on the cracked wood top. Paint will not touch this surface, I promise.

The base will be painted a white and antiqued to bring out the carving. I think the knobs look a little “south west.” My mom wants me to keep them as is…what do you think? Glass or rings?

This rustic table also has an elegant quality in the claw and ball feet. What a great piece at a great price.

The Giveaway:

This is the absolute best kind of prize…you get to pick whatever tickles your fancy! Kim from My Domestic Bliss is offering up a $25 gift certificate to be used at her Etsy store, Larkspur Interiors. She currently has all kinds of wonderful vintage pieces for sale at incredible prices, including this silver plated, enamel lined sugar & creamer set…

(I own almost this exact set and I paid more than she is charging.) She also has some beautiful lamps and sconces like this pair.
Please check out Kim’s shop and her blog. She is a delightful person and has a romantic and timeless style that you will all enjoy. Thanks, Kim, for offering such a generous giveaway.

The Party:

So, onto the link party! I am ready to by wowed! Here are the rules.

  1. I love the vintage French chair, and like you I love everything Lamp Tramp does! And that inspiration chair is swoon worthy! And why can't I ever find beautiful stuff like that table on my local CL?!

    I collect bunnies, so Anne's papier mache bunnies would something I would love to add to my collection! Thanks so much for giving us an opportunity to win one!

  3. Oh WOW, I was so pleasantly shocked this morning when I came to link up to your Fabulous Furniture Feature Friday! I really appreciate the shout out! Please bear with my slow progress on this chair, took forever just to get all the staples, nails, and glue off. I may be slow but I usually get my projects finished!
    I find such great inspiration from your blog, you make my head spin with all of your FABULOUS projects. Thanks so much for FFF, I love seeing what everyone else is doing!

Beekman Arms Inn | Rhinebeck, NY

Mom and I left Thursday morning to drive a little over five hours to Rhinebeck, NY, for the Country Living Fair.  Our plan was to meander our way up, stopping at antique malls along the way.  That plan didn’t materialize because I didn’t have much time before the trip to

Shopping Wish List for the Country Living Fair

I have become a big believer in sharing my shopping wish lists publicly before going to an antique market.  It’s a bit like wearing my “lucky sweatshirt” when the Commanders have a game (which I do), but it often proves to be effective. Remember before the Lucketts Spring Market when
