Vintage Pie Table

I have come across several round tiered tables.... sometimes referred to as a pie table,   but I haven't see too many square ones.    So when  this one came up at the auction,   I bid on it even though it was it terrible condition ....and no one else wanted it so I got it pretty cheap

The finish was pretty much gone,  but the trim and legs were still in good shape.


H painted it pink and then took the sander to it and made it look shabby.    I thought pink was a good choice for the color since the table would be setting against a white wall.

I'm not sure if I like the lamp choice yet,  so it may change.

I know what you are thinking.....how can anyone sit  on that sofa with all those pillows on it!     Well,  they can't....and the pillows will be removed as soon as I get my photos.   Kyleigh sits or lays on that sofa every night to do homework, watch TV and play on the computer!   (that is when she's not sitting in H or my lap.....aren't grand's great)
That pile of stuff has been under the library ladder since I took down the Christmas decor!   I left out the Putz churches that were on the ladder at Christmas thinking that I might use them in an Easter vignette.   You can see that I have started decorating a Spring tree ,   but that's as far as I've got!

  6. Little tables like that can be so hard to find! I am always on the lookout for things like that. I think you might be right about the lamp..A taller one might work better. :) Just kidding. Anything you put there will look great! My couch is the same way..We just shuffle the pillows around to make ourselves comfy. It's neat.

  9. Penny,
    I had already left a comment on this post but I was at work and I see it disappeared into thin air....
    Any whooooo.....

    I love this sweet table because I had one many years ago that my Dad had re-finished and when I was in a clearing out binge, I gave it away... Luckily to my neighbor, whose house we watch because she is in a nursing home....

    I may have to go over and "borrow" my table back now!!! LOL!!

    Love the pink finish on it!!

    Hugs,
    Debbie
