MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

Before and after

We needed a new (or at the least, new to us) end table for between our chairs in our new living room.  We looked in several places and finally discovered a nice one in our local Buy & Sell shop but we didn't like the colour of it. 






Above is a more-or-less 'before' picture.
The table had good bones, but didn't fit with our decor as it was.

A light sanding, some black spray paint,
and
VOILA!....


Not bad for $35!

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
