Grown Up Furniture

Ever since Boston, Matt and I have been on the look-out for a new kitchen table and chairs. Its not that I don't care for glass-top tables, its just that I hate them. Maybe someday we can be friends, but I am just not into them right now. This in addition to the fact that none of the chairs that came with the table were in one piece somewhat pushed out search along. This table served us well in Boston, as we had many friends and family sit around it with us. We will miss our little table, but very much welcome the new table we found!

This little gem was a Craig's list find. I know some people might not look too kindly upon slightly used furniture, but it was a deal and you can take my word for it! It does show a little love, but we figured it was OK for someone else to break it in for us, especially since we are going to most likely be moving around for a while in the Air Force. Check out our new table below, and matching chairs too! I know the fabric on the chairs isn't the greatest, but I will be recovering those this summer with my mom when she comes to visit. Thanks mom! I feel like such a grown-up now as we have gotten past folding chairs and have moved on to starting our collection of "real" furniture!



Table and four of the chairs. It came with six!
Close-up of one chair. Two have arms. I really like the backs!



Table top. I thought it was really pretty.
There is also a leaf that can be added to the table to make room for friends!
