Pink favorite




















One of my many favorite pink pieces around the house is my kitchen-table-turned-coffee-table.... I fell in love the moment I laid eyes on it!!! But I really had no use for a small kitchen table... Surely I wouldn't be able to fit our family of six in it... So I thought... "why not cut the legs and turn it into a coffee table?" I have to admit, it was a painful decision, as I was so in love with this table! I felt like I was cutting the legs off a good friend... But I love the end result!! And I get to enjoy it every day!!
















































If you would like to see more pictures of my living room, click here. Have a wonderful Pink Saturday!!

  2. I love the table. Great choice to get it.
    Now you can just use the legs on something else, and enjoy it twice as much. =0))

    This Pink Favorite is new to me.
    I never could get signed up in time for Pink Saturday and gave up.
    I'll check it out further.

    Enjoy your blog so much.

  9. You are one brave woman to cut off it's legs, but the result is wonderful. I love the soft pink colors and that it has imperfections. Gives it much more charm.

    Happy PS

  15. Hi Isabel, I came across your blog today and I simply couldn't leave, one can spend hours here! Thank you for great tutorial, I have gone through all of them and they got me very inspired. I can't believe your house is real, it looks too beautiful to be true - you have done such a great job collecting all these lovely objects and putting them together and it is amazing how everything fits and nothing looks out of place. I'm impressed! I added you to the list of my favourite blogs :) Cheers,

  16. It's raining cats and dogs in Upper Michigan today with oodles of cold wind. Not very spring-like so traveling from blog to blog on Pink Saturday is really a treat for me today.

    Thanks so much for sharing a little something of yourself today. I really need all the pink I can get with the weather we are having☺

    Hoping this weekend is filled with the j♥y of being surrounded by those you love and those who love you.
