What is this?

Mr. MySpareTime was out on business and when he came back into town he stopped by one of our favorite thrift stores and this is what he found.


I love the way it looks, but I don't really know what it is. He thought it was a table from the 1960's Early American decor phase.  I think it might have been a magazine table or maybe just a decorative bench.  Back in the '60s your mother's decor was either Early American, Danish Modern or Mish Mash. 

My Mom was Mid-Centrury Modern all the way


and Mr. MySpareTime's mom was Early American,


so I will defer to his expert opinion on this one. 

When you come from a home where you have an eagle over the fireplace and a wagonwheel lamp in the den, then you have probably seen a table like this.

All I know is that I think it will make a great holiday table!

Thanks for stopping by,
