Hydrangeas and a French table...

As you know my Mum and Dad arrived to spend the Holidays with us and whenever they arrive they always come with goodies.
This trip they managed to get loads into their little hatchback including this French table which Mum picked up for $20! It was in a bad way with smashed glass inlay pieces and was gold, but Mum and Dad worked their restorative magic and this is the end result. I LOVE it!!
We moved it into the lounge room this afternoon and straight away I went to the garden to cut some of my favourite white Hydrangeas for my old zinc tub to go on top.
A bowl of silver baubles....

and some candles and it is ready for the season.


The legs on this are gorgeous.
Mum painted it white and Dad fixed the broken glass by replacing it with wood panels for the four sections. I think it is better now this way.

It is perfect for the space and goes so well against our 130+ year old floors.

Can you tell I am smitten with this lovely gift?
My Mum and Dad are legends at finding horrible furniture and making them gorgeous.
I will show you some other gifts they brought soon after the holiday break. I still cant believe they got it into the little car will all of the other booty they brought!!!
So, do you like my new coffee table?
