black antique double headboard

Remember the black antique bed frame that I completed for my mom in Victoria a short time ago?  Well, she has decided not to use the foot board after all.  It's almost the same size as the headboard (just a tad shorter) and will make a great headboard on its own.  It is now up for sale and is located in VICTORIA.  Please click here or on the For Sale tab above for measurements and pricing.  Update:  *SOLD*

round cottage kitchen table

Happy New Year!  I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season with your family and friends.  As expected, mine was full of great visits and lots of wonderful food and bevies ;)  I headed to my home town to be with my family and old friends...and not surprisingly, came home with some furniture from the side of the road (a fabulous black iron patio table with 2 chairs...and a work bench which was on my 'to buy' list!).

Last April I refinished this super cute round cottage kitchen table for our home.  Since then we've acquired a new old table that we're using...until I refinish it...and likely sell it because I've found another one!  

I've given the top a fresh coat of creamy white paint so it's as good as new again.  I never did take a before picture of this piece but it's from the 70's, is made from hardwood (maple I think) and it previously was a medium coloured stain with a glossy finish.  Update:  I was wrong, I DO have a before pic!  Added below.
