More Italian Florentine!

My newest Italian florentine purchase are these beautiful nesting tables!


For now i have them on my sleeping porch. They will make the rounds in my house until
i decide where i like them best.





I could not pass these up. When i lived in Ontario i saw them two different times ...and




didn't get them. I always regretted it. So when i came across them again i bought them.




Don't you just hate it when you don't get something and then regret it forever?




This Italian Florentine is addictive...do you think i might be setting a trend here?









I still haven't told my husband about them. .. but this is an early birthday present to myself




...that's okay right??




It is beautiful day here and i am not working which is even better!




Have a wonderful weekend everyone and hope to visit you all soon!

    I do think you are setting a trend. And you are allowed to buy yourself one or twelve birthday presents. Hope you're enjoying your day off.

    OK, you didn't mention when exactly your birthday was so I went back to your August archives for last year to see if you mentioned it. Because my birthday is this month too (not because I'm a stalker freak). And I think we have the same birthday. August 22nd? How weird is that? I'm going to be the big 50 though.

    Pamela, those are truly beautiful. Yes, I have had regrets, too. Sometimes it is a regret that I just can't afford to buy the special something I find. Wish I had bottomless pockets.
    Have a great weekend!

    Pammie-I LOVE those little nesting tables. You've had them FOREVAH-right? That's the story when hubby finally spots them...Oh?!What? These old things-well, they've been here since..gee I don't know when- yeah...got it? Repeat it to yourself in the mirror so it doesn't feel like a lie coming outta your lips! As for ME-I would NEVER attempt to get away with something like that!

    They are gorgeous and I am glad you bought them...just wondering..how far off IS your birthday? xo Diana

    I love your new nesting tables Pamela! They look so lovely in your sleeping porch! Yes, they have been times when I have regretted not getting something. I try not to be so implulsive and buy things on a whim, but sometimes it is so hard! But when you are left thinking about that thing "that got away" for a year or more...then it's probably a great purchase! Have a wonderful weekend! Angie xo

    If a person can't buy a lovely pre-birthday gift for themselves then there is something wrong with the world. ;) Very pretty Pamela.

    Hi Pamela!
    The new tables are lovely on your sleep porch.
    {The perfect golden touch!}
    I passed up two bistro chairs at the Barn House last week. It's still killing me! I am glad I didn't photograph them so they only live on in my mind!

    Hi Pamela Dear!!
    I love your tables, when I finf them I cut off the legs and repaint them into wall art, like I did awhile back with the Italian serving dinner trays that hang on a tray stand.

    Love that you love them just as they are, you deserve to treat yoyrself to a Happy Birthday! But that would mean its my birthday too, being we are tiwns seperated at birth, Make sure you dance to Van Morrison, I know I will be :)
    xoxo
