Do you see what I see? Said the ..................


Again - on Craigs List - at this point I don't even need to use my imagination - this looks like DIY GOLD to me!
They don't have to stage it - or clean it up - or do anything except what they did - take a photo with tons of crap on top of it - and all I see is French Provincial - and curves - and loveliness




it comes with 4 chairs - tattered and in pretty rough shape but I've been dying to try out dropcloth as seat cushions which everyone seems to be doing - and it has a leaf - AND IT'S MINE - picking it up later today!

Suzan says - John do you think we can pick up a table and 4 chairs?
John says - I thought you were going to finish what you have in storage before buying anything else?
Suzan says - But these opportunities don't come around often
John says - Do you have a picture of it?
Suzan says - I don't want to show you the photo
John says - Well here's the deal Suzan, I NEED to see a photo to see if it'll fit in the car
Suzan says - FINE, but just look at the table - try to disregard everything else in the photo

and I show him the photo and wait - because I know without a doubt what's coming next

John says - You've got to be kidding me!
Suzan says - I knew you'd say that - but look at how gorgeous the table itself is
John says - I can't SEE a table
Suzan says - Look at the legs
John says - I can't SEE the legs
Suzan says - Look at the chair
John says - I can't SEE the chair
John says - How on earth can you SEE anything from this photo
Suzan says - Trust me on this one John - just trust me
John says - OK - but this is the last one until you finish everything else you've bought to redo
Suzan says - I promise.
Suzan crosses her fingers behind her back............................
