A Patriotic Table Makeover
I got this table for free (bonus) and saw lots of potential for it. I'm guessing it's about 50 to 60 years old. It came from my grandparents house. It was painted a dark red on the top and the legs were dark blue. I first had to sand and prime the table. I then painted it with white semi-gloss, exterior house and trim paint from ACE Hardware (my favorite place to buy paint). The front is painted with (you guessed it) chalkboard paint. And in honor of Memorial Day I drew an American flag. I think after Memorial Day I am going to probably put our house number on it or our last name. I love chalkboard paint because I can change my mind a million times on what I want to display. I hope you all had a nice weekend!

ReplyDeleteThat is cute. I am loving patriotic decorations just now. We are getting ready to redo quite a bit in our home just now and I was thinking about going with an Americana look in our living room but my husband is afraid it will look like a fairbooth. I think something like this would look cool there and not at all like a fairbooth. :-)
