Kitchen Table Dreaming

I’ve said before that we are hopefully moving before the year is up. We are buying Mr. LCH’s cousin’s house but they're still living in it until their new house gets built. We were hoping to get in it before Kenna’s birthday in September. Don’t see that happening =( They’ve cleared the land for it but haven’t started anything else (UPDATE AS OF YESTERDAY: Scheduled start day of construction is in three weeks!!! Yayyy!).

Until then, I’ve been thinking, pinning, idea running, etc. We pretty much have everything to furnish the house with the exception of a kitchen table/chairs and end tables for the living room.

I have come to the conclusion (after looking at countless blogland kitchen makeovers) that I want to do most of the work in the kitchen—paint cabinets, change hardware, add some subway tile, cool light fixtures, some open shelving, blah, blah, but FIRST, we’ll need a kitchen table! After seeing this pretty thing I call ‘Beauty,’ I fell in love with the idea of a creative kitchen table!

In the new house, I want brighter but still display my rustic, antique finds. So does that mean I’m going for more of an eclectic taste?

Anywho, after meeting ‘Beauty,’ I quickly discovered some of her relatives! (I know know why genealogists get so excited, hehe. I understand now, Uncle Tom). So, I’m going to share my excitement and please tell me your favorite if you want to chime in!

I also have seen somewhere a plain, simple table and they found different thrifted chairs but painted them all the same eye-popping color and loved that. Can’t find where I seen it though =/ I hate when I do that!
