A leg up!






Looking 4 legs.......




We seem to be obsessed with legs around here this week; from dog legs to turned legs!

Here are a few examples of some clevah ways to get a leg up on the square looks of things!







The French legs have just the right curvy profile.

 A great fruit wood table from lantiques.









Not one for guilt; these stools and carved legs do have a little glitz that can be just right.

I do like a little glitz here and there, these stools from feed stitch are pretty golden examples.










This faux bois table with rustic legs is a great alternative to a more refined piece of furniture. I like the whimsical feel to this piece, what a gorgeous spray of wildfleurs and moss covered urns.








This cottage bedroom is not only filled with carved and distressed legs, but vintage bamboo exotic legs.
The bamboo vintage armoire in the background is gorgeous!
I love the open wired door fronts!







These legs are a lined and chrome plated.


I love the look of vintage industrial chic!







There is something about a twisted fold able gate leg table that makes me swoon.
This table by Daryl Carter is a fine example of maximizing space!


This one is really nice with the hand worn patina finish, years of layers add to the look.
What is it about a faded, crusty piece of furniture that makes women of all ages shutter?


The very thought of a little laugh line or crows foot also has the same effect, but that type of age is not a welcome find or treasure.






This dining room table is another great example of lovely elegance in wood or painted legs.
The dining room is by Thomas Pheasant.








I like the straight oak craftsman feel of the sink base in this 1920 pantry.
Also, the octagonal Terra cotta floor times are so pretty too. The contrast of the wood and the stainless wall of refrigeration is wonderful and unexpected. A room by Houzz.






The chunky leg of a single turned table is also a classic, but here it is reintroduced to a more Swedish lifestyle.I am a big fan of gray, muted and gilt.
This is a soft and calming room to me, even with the passing by loon.






Of course my personal favorite is this coffee table from B.D. Jefferies.
 I love the hooved legs and feet of this iron table. The seagrass and zebra does not hurt things either. I like an interesting piece of furnishing for the home or office.

Wonderful post...you are giving me a whole new meaning to the look and feel of tables here. We have one similar to the first picture and drag it around with us from country to country. It seats 8 comfortably. It has been a tight squeeze in some of our kitchens but I could never part with it!

Thanks for stopping by today!
