Three cheers for two-tiers!

So sorry for that...I needed a title for my post today and I swear that was the first thing that popped into my head.  There may not be any cheers if this isn't your style of table...and I have to admit it could take a little time for it to grow on ya!  Having said that, I think you would have to agree that it looks much better now than it did when I first picked it up!



Not going to mention any names, but one of my "friends" said she didn't even know what it was...seriously?!  Old...yes, but not old enough to be considered an antique.  Outdated...absolutely, but use your imagination, right?  That's what I do every time I pick up a piece...I have a vision and look at it as a challenge.

Anyhoo, here is what it looks like today!






As you can see I couldn't resist adding what is becoming, my signature postmark, just for fun.  BTW, I don't know why it appears to be a different color right in the middle of the table...I assure you it is NOT like that IRL!

So whatch'a think...is it a hit or a miss?!  Would you have not wasted your time and energy on this piece?  Would love to hear your thoughts!

Gotta run...I have 100 wedding cookies to decorate.  Till then....

There's a skinny girl who lives inside of me that's screaming to get out...I can usually shut her up with cookies! Photobucket

    I think it's cute, and I have no idea what I would use it for, but I sort of want one too.

    I love it! Sure wish you lived closer to Texas or I lived closer to Arizona, I'd bring all my old furniture to you!

    Wow!! That's an amazing transformation!! I see it now - I'm pretty sure my grandma had a table like that, too! LMAO Did you go to her estate sale, for pete's sake?!! I love the postmark on top - love how it adds that great vintage feel, and the white with the dark stain - delicious!! Good luck with the cookies today!!

    Based on my own opinion, I think that your idea of three cheers for two tiers seems very interesting. I think that you really made a very attractive table with an amazing design. I think that those jars really suit well on top of that cute looking cheer table.
