I'm leaning toward the white you suggested so I can use it for the holidays (pretty idea so thanks), or I might do black so I can sit it on my landing on the stairs.

Wanna paint it a color of your choice (white) and elevate a small Christmas tree on it? Place greenery or Christmas ornaments on the little shelf underneath with holly wrapped around the pole? Wow. I think this is the most primitive piece I have seen you pick up. It has promise!

Lucky you.<BR/><BR/>I used to have bar stools that the top wound up and down just like yours does. They were real handy in my photo studio when I took family portraits and needed to make people higher and lower.<BR/><BR/>The Texas WomanThe Texas Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05570040257752834063noreply@blogger.com
