Ok, Ok, I am aware that I have done a lot of black furniture lately but it is finally balancing out the white at the shop! Plus, I had a crap ton of black paint so I figured this thrifty girl will save a few bucks and use what she's got.
My mom brought this little beauty to me one day while I was working at the shop. Although it was pretty just the way it was, the previous owner had a dog, or cat, or hungry child, that had gnawed on one corner of it. So I piled it into the car, unloaded it into the garage, and let it sit there for a month or so. I have no idea why I don't just redo stuff right away. It's like I have to think about it, and let it sit there and annoy me until I finally break down and do it. That is the HUGE procrastinator in me. Well, a couple of big things sold at the store so in a mad dash to fill the empty space I got off my lazy tush and got to work.
Sorry for the mess under the table. I took this picture while re-arranging. But the table sure does look cute!

I sanded those lovely bite marks off of the corners and then sprayed it... black... shocking I know.
Then I sanded more until it was as distressed as I liked it. You guys... for reals... this really wan't that hard. What in the heck was I waiting for!! I seem to think things will be harder then they actually are sometimes. Silly me.
Beautiful! Paint it Black may be your new theme song.
ReplyDeleteI wish I lived near you so I could come visit your space! I think it's smart that you stick to a color scheme, definitely defines your space and gives your shoppers an idea of what you'll have on hand. :)
ReplyDeleteThe table looks great. Good job!
