After the Christmas tree came down, I was in the rearranging mood. My living room isn’t a very cooperative shape, so I had to be creative. I did, however, find a “new” coffee table at a local second had store. A little paint, and it’s reborn! I spray painted the wood and did the glass with a technique that makes it look like the old, mottled, mercury glass. You can see how to do that here. I’m pretty pleased.
About three years ago I painted over a huge picture I’d had for some time. I used chalkboard paint and wrote on it one of my favorite quotes. This weekend it got a new coat of paint, but I had to keep the great quote, “There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.” ~Jane Austen
