next ebay project

I should just call Fridays "Ebay Fridays" because I have a new Ebay project almost every week! Since the amazeballs tree root/zinc dining table did not happen (thanks for nothing, Jess ;), I decided to do a lacquered French Provincial table like these beauties:






I think this is just a shiny wood finish, but looks like black lacquer
I snagged this French extension table for *wait for it* $150 buckeroos on Ebay...it extends to 96".



 I have a totally amazing lacquer guy here who can spray anything or create any finish on a wood table. I think black may be the most classic and versatile, since it is going with the chrome chairs I showed last week...what do you think? He can do any color - maybe a super deep eggplant/purple that looks almost black. Suggestions?

Happy weekend love muffins!

    I think black is the way to go and looks super sexy lacquered. Great find!

    OMG What an amazing find!!! I think black because it will work with anything! I also really love that second room with the while table too!

    I just scrolled back to the chairs again to have a 'look-see' - and yes, black would be truly exquisite. Promise that you will share the results...

    I really love that red table - and the white one as well - I think about your table in black and get excited in your behalf. It will knock'em dead!

    Have a glorious week end!

    I would love to see it in a super deep eggplant! That would be killer!

    Amazing! I use eBay all the time, but I haven't ventured into the world of furniture on there. I'll have to start utilizing it that way when we move back stateside. I can't wait to see your table when it's done! It's going to be beautiful!

    Decisions...that's a tough one. Black is truly classic, but eggplant? So good. I would vote eggplant bc it's such a rich and unexpected color. Either one will be gorge.
