So, I'm down to the very last items to price, just 2 more thank heavens, and getting the house ready to go. I thought I'd share one more item with you before I get too busy, or too tired to think about a post. (Though I might just post some staged photos for you on Thursday night.)
Here is a HUGE trestle/harvest type table that my family used for many years. We moved, the table was too large for our new space and the rest is history. Here it is in it's new paint just waiting for a new home.
I liked it so much I said to my long suffering husband, "you know maybe we should just keep..." at which point he fixed me with a look and I slapped a sale tag on it. You'd better come buy it before I change my mind...again!
It does not include chairs, we used 5 family antiques with it when we had it in the kitchen. It does have this really long bench that can easily seat 3 to 4 people. I think it would be super cool with an eclectic mix of vintage wood chairs!
Hope to see you on Friday or Saturday!

ReplyDeleteWhat a cool table! And I agree, it would look awesome with a mix of chairs! Wish I could come check out your sale in person. You know I'm cheering you on from afar!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this table and especially the bench!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was married we used a extra-long harvest table handed down from my in-laws. The table was beautiful natural wood, I think maple. I happened to have a couple of maple chairs that matched. The old house we bought had leftover furniture in it so I had a pair of cane-bottom ladder back chairs and an oak ladder back chair from my single days which I painted a medium dark green. My sister-in-law had an extra-long heavy wooden bench as a coffee table and when they moved, she gave it to me. It also got the green treatment. We used it as a coffee table and moved it to the dining room table for family dinners.
I loved that randomly assembled dining set. Someone will get a lot of good use out your set. Benches are so practical for family dinners.
Good luck with your sale!
