The Dining Table of My Dreams....another chalk paint makeover

i go in for surgery (this time the left thumb joint replacement) tomorrow at 6am, so I thought I would get a new post out to you before I am gimped up a bit.

  Too small but nice little Ikea table.

 The larger table I have been looking for...found at St. Vincent's.



Nice side detail too. Solid wood table. Heavy!!


First coat of white chalk paint. I love this stuff!


Design ideas....





 I used some washi tape to temporarily define the area I wanted the detail in.


Mirrored some detail on the side. Love the echoing two toned look.






I've got a few other furniture overhauls coming up.....


Be Creative. It's Good for the Soul!

And leave a COMMENT while you are at it. ; )
Blessings, Joanie

  3. Your ability to see the potential in what may have been a discard and to give it a new life is a gift. Lovely table makeover! Hope all goes well with surgery and your recovery. Get well, stay well, be well!
