very cute, but I love your current one. Tell DH his tushy and back are likely MUCH happier in the ones you have now!

I like the table very much. I found some crank table bases being sold online -- perhaps you could get one of those and put the current table top on it.

I think Cost Plus World Market has something similar. The quality probably isn't the same, but you'd get the look.

I too like your current one akl. Brdrl, love your table with the sewing machine base!

Thanks all, I do like the current one too...just the green doesn't go with anything! But it was a steal on the Cdn version of CL and it's beautiful solid wood.

The chairs are so comfy too. And we did recently get them recovered. They are great except when the child spills milk all over them ;)

Brdrl- your table is adorable. When I saw that I thought of this

I'm in Canada, so everything that's kinda cool is pricey. Love World Market otherwise!

I like the sewing machine base table too. But if you like the current table and its solid wood, you can easily change the color with paint or stip it and stain it. A bit of a mess gettng there, but a weekend project that may not take more time than lookng and dreaming. I was picturing doing that if you did put it on a crank base.

aki, lovely dining table -- the colour is perfect when Canadian winter sets in : ) .

I agree with lascatx. If you wanted a project to bring your current table in line, at least colour-wise, with the other table, you could strip the top and stain it, and then paint the base black. Is that a possibility?

brdl, wonderful project. That looks amazing, and the perfect use for so many of those vintage and antique sewing machine bases.

As another Canadian, I'd love to be able to shop at World Market!

I'd just paint your current chairs very dark, black or a deeper tone than the table, they look too comfortable to change out.

Hmmm. Strip and stain the table...

I'm a horrible painter and I get so impatient.

Very cute table.....as shown AND the one with the sewing machine base!! Those ice cream parlor chairs show up on CL from time to time. As was mentioned.....not very comfy!

You only need to do the top -- or have it done. If you don't like painting, strip the finish and do a stain. It's a little messy, but not really that hard. And you can/should wear gloves so you don't stain your hands.

A stain would be gorg...but I'd hate to ruin the table! There is a place I'm taking my pantry door in to be stained (eventually!). Maybe I'll see what else they can do!

I love the green table! I hope you dont change the color!

Personally, I wouldn't be able to relax while at the first table, what with the "table raiser" underneath. Is she included in the price? :))

Lol barncatz! My ds would probably be under there all the time playing with it :)

akl, how about a compromise? I'm sitting here reading the Plow & Hearth catalog which arrived today, and they have a side table that is an awful lot like that dining table.

going on line to see if they have a pic of it.

(Plays elevator music while looking)

Yep, here it is!
