A present from my sister arrived at our house last Saturday. Described by sister J as a vintage/retro little table with stools to match. Hhhhm yes it is a table and it has stools but I think maybe it needs a bit of tarting up first.
Black formica drop leaf table with two matching stools
Love these little pegs that secure the seat in place so at least I can recover them easily
It is pretty sound for its age, it needs new hinges for the drop leaves and a bit of glue on some of the joints on the stools.
Not sure what to do with it.
I am tempted to paint it all and recover the stool seats.
Or I could just paint the formica top and leave the legs and the stool legs as varnished.
Or I could take the top off and find a new top for it out of just plain wood.
So many possibilities ............. the fire oh no sorry I won't burn it
My sister sent me a photo of a similar table (use your imagination) she had seen at a display at a garden centre. Not sure mine could look like that!
Bye for now
Definately chic. Maybe you need some rose coloured glasses for today, then you could take another look!! Sarah
