A fabulous find!

My family and I took a mini vacation to a resort in Pennsylvania recently to get re-energized.  I love going to PA.,  I am always on the look out to find some treasures in antique stores along the way.

And really, I was not disappointed… On the way home, I spotted this beauty just standing there in front a cute little antique store just waiting for me to pick it up.  The store owner said it was damaged and she had tried to repair it,  but no success.  So, I told her I'll give it a try and I will take it off her hands for a mere $25.  When I got home, I inspected this beauty and it did have some knicks and gauges, the legs are a bit uneven.  Nothing a little putty and tweeking can't fix.  It had such gorgeous detail, I was in love!


I decided to paint it, so now, the big question is what color to paint?


In my shopping excursion to one of my favorite stores, HomeGoods I found this beautiful sunburst mirror painted in a gray.  Maybe, I can paint it gray and have the dark wood showing through?



Or maybe these finishes?



I love the look of this wood achieved by Savvy Southern Style.

Here it is again...

What do you think?  Do you have any idea what color I should paint this beautiful table, to bring out its gorgeous details even more?
