The Baluster of the Ball

             While I was at the salvage store in New Hampshire, I picked up these gingerbread pieces.

                                                                            
                                             This baluster will become the leg on the table.  The vintage pieces were stripped and painted white, just to make the piece look better as a whole.  Mr. Thrifty trimmed  and flattened the bottom of the baluster to allow the three pieces to fit up securely to it. 

                                                                             
              I found the base at Home Depot.  It was a round disc.  I primed and painted it out white.
                                                        
                                              All put together, it looks like this.


It's a perfect setting for my tea service and mosaic silver tray.
