Downton Abbey Look-a-Like


The wait is over, I’m sharing my recent pause and snap!



My mother introduced me to Downton Abbey and I have been hooked ever since.  
~Early 1900’s ~ British ~ Lords & Ladies ~ Fashion ~ Castles … what’s not to love?

On several occasions when watching Downton Abbey, I noticed something that looked familiar.  So when I saw it again while watching the last episode, I grabbed the remote, hit pause and snapped a picture of the TV screen!

See that little table?

Here it is a little closer…

It reminds me of our little table in the hallway.

Here’s my Downton Abbey look-a-like.

These pictures were taken early in the morning when the sun was coming in through the bathroom window…

  2. Wow, I can't believe you spotted that table, how fun! I haven't finished watching season 3 yet, so I will be on the lookout for that! Your table is so elegant, I love the delicate legs. I love Downton Abbey, such a total escape from our hectic lives...don't you love how formal they are with each other?! Fun post, thanks

  5. I absolutely love Downton Abbey! Can't get enough. Your look alike is wonderful. That little mouse is cute. BUT your front doors are stealing the show for me. :)

  6. Hi Cindy,

    I love your little table; the spindle legs are so pretty. Your vignette looks so nice and your Chippendale mirror is just lovely! It is fun to discover something of ours in a tv show or movie, isn't it? I noticed this past Christmas when we re-watched "Home Alone" that they have our living room lamp on their bedside table. That was kind of exciting. :)

    Have a great day, Cindy!

  7. Your table looks very much like the one from Downton Abbey, and is very pretty. Yes, totally hooked on that show, but just wonder how much for death and heartache that family is going to endure. When they insist on sharing all that sadness with those of us who follow faithfully, I say "enough is enough!"

  8. I don't watch downtown Abby, but love your little table. The mirror you've paired with it is perfect.

    I hope you'll come see My Daughter's Master Bath Redo! #83 at Met Monday.

  10. I love DA. I have a whole board for it on Pinterest. I was not happy with the season finale however. Why two of the main actors wanted to leave the series is beyond me. Julian Fellowes did the best he could but still. Your table is lovely.
