I remembered you did this project and it recently inspired me with a situation of my own. Thanks!

I was just thinking, that if you still wanted to shorten that “leaf that hangs down too low”- try shortening it from the bottom side (the side closest to the floor). You could do a cute scalloped edge so if it wasnt cut perfectly- no one would know. 🙂
LOVE your site!!!!!!! I feel so inspired!!! Thanks for sharing your tips and pictures.

Gail,
I am so glad I stumbled upon your blog via one of your link party posts. It is so nice to meet up with fellow DIY, furniture loving, creative enthusiasts. Like you, I never know how or what I am going to do with a piece of funiture until I start working on it. I wait for it to speak to me as well. Until I read this post, I thought I was the only one who experienced this and was a little reluctant to admit it. Glad to know that I am not alone:) I am now one of your many followers. Please stop by for a visit and would be honored if you would fan or follow my blog too.

I can totally feel you on this one. I have 4 tables in my basement right now that have tripod legs like these. I think they all eventually break in that same spot and they are so difficult to repair. You did a wonderful job with it.

Don't worry about spending your money on the RL Glaze. It's just glaze with universal tint mixed in and it's waaay overpriced.

That’s awesome! You know if you made the other one they could be bedside tables. I love this – great job!

Gosh and golly, that did need quite a bit of work though how totally worth it! Love the antiqued base and dark top. Would love your thoughts on my refurbished farmhouse table. Visiting from Miss Mustardseed.
