Our Table Arrived!

We've been waiting for several weeks now for our table and 2 chairs for the breakfast nook. Finally, they were delivered on Saturday afternoon.This is one table I'll have to keep clean -- glass shows every tiny piece or smear of food! It does make the room lighter and brighter and the square-round shape gives more surface space than the round.

In reality, the table will seldom be that cleared off. You know who likes having his computer there. In fact, he sometimes uses his 'puter as his placemat.I really liked the design and workmanship on the chairs and base of the table.....they have a bit of pizazz!We all have our pet peeves. Ed's having a fit because we'll need to loosen the screws to get the plastic off the chair seats. He said his dad used to get a nice car and immediately cover the seats with plastic so the future buyer would have nice seats. HE wants to enjoy the nice fabric instead of "saving" it for the future. So, it's off with the plastic very soon.

LOVE your table and chairs! The rattan is beautiful!

Tell Ed I'm with him--remove the plastic. You can re-cover the seats if the fabric gets dirty. One set of my grandparents put some kind of heavy plastic over the vinyl on the seats of their car. I had other elderly relatives who kept plastic on their couch.
