My French Inspired Coffee Table for sale

french provincial painted furniture by LIlyfield Life

Phil and I have decided to make a few changes in our lounge room. You know they do say a change is as good as a holiday - and so I am selling our French inspired coffee table.  I've had a lot of people ask about this lovely coffee table over the last year  so I'm sure it won't last long.

It is an interesting and unusual shape with lots of carved details. The legs are gorgeous with claw and ball feet. The  coffee table had been antique glazed to bring out the details and then top coated with a beautiful Porters Paints sealer for durability.

It is very good condition - I have to say I mainly use it for folding clothes on! Dimensions are: 120cm by 70 cm wide by 40cm high.  Let me know if you are interested.

I am half way through painting some beautiful French drawers (in Paris Grey and Pure White) and a lovely simple chest of drawers in Duck Egg Blue. However I'm not making much progress this week to be honest with lots of family stuff going on. It's all good but the normal mother duties busy, you all know how it is I'm sure - sports, general appointments, some business consulting work, a car servicing, a sick child etc. But that's okay, no rush on these things. Painting furniture is my hobby and passion, not my mainstay.

I hope you are all having a good week also.

  2. That's my saying too - a change is as good as a holiday - so we have lots of "holidays" in my home - sometimes weekly! Gorgeous coffee table! You have a real knack for finding pieces and you must have a really good storage area to put them all!!!
