Painted Victorian Parlor Table

I thought this might be a fun table to use on the porch or in the yard when we have company(not that we don't have enough tables!) I started painting this table white, then decided to add a little pink to make a muted tone(my BF Teresa says that's the new thing-I like it too-just can't achieve it!). I'm not happy with how it turned out. I think I may have to go back and paint it another color-any suggestions?

Here it was before. I already have 3 of these tables and this would need some help. I'm joining White Wednesday at http://fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/

    You can't have too many tables! I love this one, and I think the paint looks great...very soft. I don't know why, but I can't pass up any kind of vintage table....that's why you can't get in my garage!

    I don't see anything wrong with it?

    I wanted you to know that this website http://aneanetok.blogspot.com/2011/05/painted-victorian-parlor-table.html has copied your post on their website. I found out today that many, many of my posts are on this website. They go back a long way too! Many of yours may be on this website. They are copying and pasting posts...everyone else's...on their website. Don't know if there is anything that can be done, just wanted you to know what this person is up to!
