Formica–love it or hate it??

What do you think of this little beauty, again it’s the “Marmite” conundrum – “love it or hate it”??
Unlike Marmite, I spotted this table at forty paces and snapped it up. She has a lovely Formica top and is drop-leaf, so 1950’s. The colours are far brighter but the light was poor in the shed and the mobey isn’t as good as my camera, however I think you can appreciate her. If she goes to the Old Pill Factory, I am sure that Fiona & Ann will pop her in the window, she is so glam!

    Not keen on Formica but I will admit I do rather like the table, very unusual, never seen one like it before, I bet someone soon snaps it up.

    The prettiest Formica table I've ever seen! Will look very stylish in the right setting - I'm sure it will sell very quickly.

    That is a corker of a table regardless of what it is made of - a great find I would have made a bee line for that too.

    oh yes very pretty for Formica. Love the drop side tables of the 1950s, for those tiny basement flats where space was a premium♥

    I adore formica its such a practical easy to clean looks good after years of use material. Fab patterns and colours it comes in wish they still used it today. I adore that table infact i would love to own it. But don't think it would fit anywhere in my place. great find, dee x

    The roses make it, Tracey! - A wise buy! Hope it makes it to the window before it gets snapped up.
    Have a great weekend,
