Gail, I never would have thought to use balsa wood. And those brass fort caps are fabulous! Great resort! Pinned!

Anita,

I was soooo happy she still had her little shoes! Many times these old tables have a broken foot. Thanks for your kind comment!

Interesting, way to set it up. I would have tidied up the inside and left it as a nice book nook inside, but painted since sometimes I like my table surfaces clear. Similar table my child had and I painted it silver for her when she was in Paris mode.
