Some more new furniture

We hit another couple antique stores today, and found a little credenza for very cheap.

We need to tighten up the hinges to fix the doors. Other than that, the wear is just character. :) It'll probably end up being a side table for Jeff's chair.

We've also been looking for small gateleg table for quite a while now. We found one close to the size we wanted at the same antique store.

It's beat up, but it was cheap, and we'll have it covered with a table cloth for company. It takes up very little space when completely folded up, which is exactly what we were looking for.

Just two more pieces to go now. The biggest two. We're going out looking next weekend.

How wide is it closed? What's the size when it's all the way open? Are you going to paint it, or just use a tablecloth when necessary?

It's about 8-10 inches wide when it's closed and about 3.5 feet (maybe 4 feet) when all the way open. I wanted something a little bigger, but this was the closest we've found to what we wanted, so we just got it.

I doubt I'll be painting it any time soon, so it'll probably be tablecloths. A good excuse to use some of the vintage ones I've been collecting!
