Dining Room Tables

My Sweetie and I have been shopping for a dining room table.  Currently, we have an antique round pedestal table made from solid maple.  I have to admit I like this table and I hate to let it go but we need a larger table, perhaps a harvest table.  There are 8 of us who eat dinner together 4 times a week and the table we have only seats 4 (it will seat 6 if we add the leaf) so, the kids sit at the table and the adults sit at the kitchen bar.  We've been talking about getting a larger table for a while but I've been putting it off for several reasons:

1) I hate to give up my current table
2) A harvest table with 8 chairs is expensive
3) I'm having a hard time making up my mind
4) I'm not fond of shopping for furniture

Plus a few other reasons. 

We've looked in several different stores but are no closer to making a decision than when we started. What I "think" I want is a painted set similar to this one.  I love the painted part but prefer a darker stain.  This table actually extends to 104 inches.  I also like that it's all wood with no particle or vaneers.  I like the buffet that goes with it.  It's a great set.

I like the color of this set and the china hutch that goes with it is gorgeous as well.  Sorry my Sweetie didn't take a photo of the hutch.

I like this one too and the table and chairs were a great price but the additional cost for the paint and stain put it up there with the high end finished furniture.  I know, we could do it ourselves but our plate is full with other projects we are trying to complete.

Love this table, I'm a big fan of Kincaid funiture and this fits my cottage style. The china hutch is a perfect fit too.  I found this one online but would love to see the actual set.  You can see the specs on this table HERE

It's probably going to take a few more months before we make a decision.  Until

then, I'll enjoy the one I have and dream about the future Maywood Cottage dining set.

Till next time
