Here's our little roadside rescue end table.
It came home with us looking like this:
but it had so much potential...
I thought I would give it some color and try my hand at spray painting.
So it became this:
And we loved the rich blue. For a time.
Eventually I wanted to use it in another space and the blue just wouldn't work.
So I gave it a couple coats of white paint,
then added in some Maison Blanche in Cobblestone giving it an entirely new look...
A quick coating of wax with a bit of dark stain mixed in gave it a little bit of aged character:
It's neutral enough now to go in almost any room in my home.
This is good because if you know me you know I love to move things around...a lot. :)
For now it finishes off this space nicely.
It definitely needs some oil rubbed bronze on those little knobs for some contrast.
I'm trying to decide if I want to give it a monogram on the door front.
The white raised panel seems to be asking for something but I ran out of the Cobblestone color so I couldn't finish it with that even if I'd wanted.
What do you think? Gold on the edges of the door panel?
A Monogrammed Letter for our last name? Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
