My Beautiful Buffet!

I bought this dresser at a yard sale many months ago.  It was a good, solid piece of furniture.  The top was marred and a few nicks here and there….but I always think of that as “Character building” opportunities:)

And….I had always wanted a buffet in our dining room….so that is what it has become.  It holds napkins and napkin rings….

….placements and tablecloths… in one handy area.  And……… I love the detail of this piece…

…the original appliqués and hardware.

The detailed skirt and legs.  Oh my…..and that mirror!

I did a bit of “Character building” on it myself!  Yes….I am, most definitely, smitten with my new buffet!   It is “Home Sweet Home,” forever:)! 

I will be joining the following blog parties this week:

*White Wednesday at Faded Charm Cottage

*Vintage Inspiration Friday at Common Ground

*Feather Nest Friday at French Country Cottage

I hope you can join us.  Have a wonderful week, everyone!
