I LOVE the paint change! I must have missed your previous post showing that. Amazing difference! I really do not see a primitive style in your family room. I mean the plaid couch can be Prim, the endtable, the coffee table but the other pieces, like the shiny brass around the fire place, the floral lampshade, the floral pillows with all the fringe, the scroll work above the mantel...are not Prim, maybe more French or English country but not Prim. I know you have pieces that could appear primitive but your room is much more "fancier" than the simple look of Prim. I can sympathize on the issue that it's hard to find country or Prim stuff out there when shopping, though. Stores and decorating shows and what not seem to think country is out, so they don't have it. What they don't realize is that not everyone follows the trends and there are people out there that like differnet things. I have found that many items can be made to go with country, though with some work. I paint a lot of items and it instantly transforms them. Now you wouldn't want to buy a brand new coffee table and spend a fortune to go and paint it, but you could try second hand shops :) I have also learned to sew and do other crafty things so that I can get what I want, not just what's out there to buy! Good luck!

Thank you everyone for your comments and compliments! I am happy with it. Pal- I really appreciate your input. Yes, it does look alot better then the old (1988) cherry coffee table. Oly- I definitely had the same concerns as you so. Newhomebuilder- it was $198. As I said, I prob could have talked her down but I didn't have the heart. I have been hunting for months. I do a "coffee table" search every day on CL. Interestingly enough, she said no one else responded. It may be the time of year too - people are thinking about other things. Just keep looking, you'll find something. Thanks again! Dawn

It looks like you have children in the space, so please, no glass. And the best coffee table choice with children would be an ottoman style. But if you are keeping the wood table, get some type of bumper guards. https://www.bestproductsreviews.com/Corner-Guards-Child-Safety?targetid=dsa-19959388920&matchtype=&device=m&campaignid=13697721320&creative=530350157979&adgroupid=132788019068&feeditemid=&loc_physical_ms=9004177&loc_interest_ms=&network=g&devicemodel=&placement=&keyword=$&target=&aceid=&adposition=&trackid=us_all_top_1_1&mId=407-132-4411&trackOld=true&gclid=CjwKCAjwgaeYBhBAEiwAvMgp2oPv4swZ8WnqeHpaPW5VTuN72-6yIrLNEpnyXv7AaTXLdP1Y2OrlPRoChEMQAvD_BwE I think you would be better off with a floating shelf type of tv console. You don’t have a lot of room to pass through in front of the tv - as you enter and exit through the front door, etc.; so wall mounting the tv, and using a slim, wall mounted floating tv stand/console would possibly free up some space there for you.

Thx everyone. i think i hated the cor from the moment i saw it and maybe that is what is throwing me off. we just moved in so no accessiries yet and i mixed too many styles in the space and while i would love to get rid of the table AND the serena and lily bar stools my husband loves them and wont budge on the stools. i thought maybe that dead space on caroet could use a couple of poufs or and ottoman? i love the rattan square table but dodnt want to overdo the rattan. will send more pics.
