My new kitchen table!



Finally!! I've been wanting a new kitchen table for several years. I've had my eye on this one for about 9 months at Sam's Club, but thought that I better look around for the best deal and make sure that I wasn't getting ripped off by the "wholesale" gimmic. After a lot of looking and relooking at this one (at least 6 or 7 times), I finally broke down and bought it. It is a counter height table with a butterfly leaf that stays inside the table, which means no more storing a leaf under the guest bed! :-) It has nine chairs, which easily beat anything else that I could find. I'm not sure what the stain is, but my floors are oak, if that helps any. It's probably a walnut or mahogany... And I think I got a pretty good deal on it! I'm excited and Jeff is happy, so all is good! Here's another picture...

I really like it! The natural wood it beautiful, and the dark stain looks really nice. Good job! I know it's hard to find good deals on furniture- everything seems so expensive! Looks like it will serve you now and in the future though because of how many people you can seat! (so let us know when you are having the dinner party! ha ha) Anna

Thanks! A dinner party... well I hadn't considered it, but that might be a good idea! :-) Hope St. Louis is treating you well!

i think i looked at this same one! i loved that is was counter height and that it had so many chairs. but we have a baby in a high chair and the poor thing wouldnt be at the same level as the rest of us! glad someone got it though.
just catching up with you and your blog. how are you?
