Skirted Console Tables

I've told you about my home's foyer (or lack thereof) here and here.  I already own an entry table, so I knew that if I wanted to do something differently, it has to be budget friendly.  After seeing the skirted bedside tables that have been popping up on design blogs for a while now, I wondered if a skirted console table had been done?  A little Google-ing later, I realized I did NOT have an original idea!  But, the pictures I found were just the inspiration I needed.  Here are a few of the images that are inspiring me~

Now, the bigger decisions- what size to make the console table and what fabric!

Are you liking skirted tables or do you prefer the richness of a wood table?
