The reason I call this the Tuxedo table is because of its likeness to a pin striped suit. I guess I should have called it a pin stipe suit table (???) but it just doesn’t roll off the tongue well.
Without further ado, this is the new Tuxedo Table:

UPDATE ON RITA’S LIFE:
ahem…
I totally forgot to post about this earlier but I’ve been out of the old job now for a few weeks. I’ve been busier than I could have ever imagined but thoroughly enjoying every minute of it. And the kids (and dogs) love me being home when they get here after school.
I start a new job the first week of December. It’s working with a special friend of mine so that is always a blessing….and guess what, she says more than good morning when prompted (that’s an inside joke). It’s temporary but it’s sounds interesting. Plus I realize I can’t stay home forever as much as I’d like. So I’m pretty excited
Curbside Creations…this is always a good topic. I’ve been selling furniture just about every week but know it’s not a fulltime gig. NOT YET! It never really was which is why I stayed so comfortably at my old job. I have a child going to college and a child with depression not to mention I have my own meds so between the three of us I know how much I need a month and don’t cut it with my furniture biz. It’s enough to give me spending money and a fun creative outlet, but I just don’t have the following I need to do it alone. I need to start investigating cheap advertising!!
I hope I didn’t bore anyone and if you actually read all of this, I love you!
If you feel you must comment and tell me what an extra special person I am, I won’t stop you.
HUGS!
Rita

that table is so dark and handsome and i think he just ordered me a drink. ;)
and i am praying for the best for you, friend!
This is so awesome Rita!! I love it!! And glad to hear you'll have a temporary job this December!! :)
Love the table! It totally looks like a tuxedo!
Glad to hear things are going well for you and you have opportunities coming your way. I think so many of us dream of a time when we can be creative full time and be able to support ourselves doing so, and you are definitely talented enough to make it happen!
You did a great job on this table - love the white pin-striping. very nice.
so glad you're job situation is working out - its tough to work from home if you need insurance or $$ for meds - both so expensive.
take care
Love, love it! It turned out great. Amazing what a little paint can do.
I love how the white details contrast against the dark gray. It turned out amazing!
There are so many paths to choose. Changing paths is the hardest part. You have started a new journey. Enjoy it!
So happy that you found a new job so quickly! I wish I could find a way to turn doing what I love into a business too.....maybe someday :) I'm not getting my business degree for nothing! I totally love this table, it does remind me of a tuxedo!
That is so beautiful! Errr... handsome!
