Another Change in the Breakfast Room

I moved the sideboard in the breakfast room

for it seemed a shame to cover up those lovely windows

And then I decided that I needed a different table

for the "smaller" space

So I brought in a wicker table from the front porch

Covered it with burlap and lace

 And it was a nice table

But it seemed "short"

It was also a tad wobbly

But that may have been because of the brick floor

Plus you couldn't "wipe" it down

And Jim is a messy eater!

I've been looking for a table

And this week, I went shopping again

To the basement!

For my square table

A card table

Bought 20 years ago

from Bombay Company

On a deep sale

For like $100 

Plus it was Valentine's Day and they were having give a gift

from Godiva Chocolates

For each $25 spent, you got a little box

I said, hey, I spent $100, do I get four?

And I did!

It's a little miracle table

Here it is in it's untablecloth form

(and looking at these pictures, I need to turn it around 

so the legs don't look funny!)

You just pull out the back part and unfold the top

It folds up into a great little end table

(this is in the living room)

But it also has two leaves and will seat 8.

A very versatile table!

The breakfast room has changed more than any other room

in the house in it's seven short years

And I'm not usually that much of a changer

But it still remains one of my favorite rooms of the house

Even though it is one of the smallest!

The breakfast room with lace covered table,

A sideboard full of blue transfer ware

Two old chairs with needlepoint seats

And the best view of the garden!

Update:   I noticed in the pictures that the legs of the table looked funny -- they weren't even -- they still aren't even but I DID turn the table around so they look normal!      

It's Monday and I'm joining Susan at Between Naps On the Porch for Met Monday and also Judith at Lavender Cottage for Mosaic Monday -- MY FIRST!
