A Customized Night Table


My friend asked me for a night table! She had to set up the guest bedroom for a young lady...
Two factors to considerate!
 * a tiny space to place it, between the bed and a closet
* bed's high, little higher than the average

When I found this table with the high shelf and the skinny size, ohhhh! I thought "It's mine!!!" 


One of the closets into the bedroom has a light gray color and taking a look on my paint storage I found this sparkling light gray from Valspar that works perfectly!!!



After a good sanding, just started to primer and then painted it!
 Firstable I was thinking to apply a Stencil on top of the table, but girls has a lot of stuff ...... and at the end I did on the drawer and look! just the perfect place where everyone can see it!!


The Stencil is from Marta Stewart and the paint is a darker gray, Mountain Smoke from Valspar


My next step: delivery to my friend !
She saw the picture and already likes it!!
That means Happiness for me...


Thankful! Jacqueline

OLD WOOD CANDLE HOLDERS


I found them in a thrift store and paid around $6 for both
solid pine wood, great size and excellent conditions!



When I realized they had a plain look, the idea to add some texture and modern elements stuck in my head..



Fern leaves a great green theme for these traditional pieces


Well..... the color was a big concern! and finally choose Oyster Bay  from  Sherwin Williams and later applied a white acrylic to the leaves to keep interest in texture...


I distressed all the edges and Yes! this was a difficult job!
But at the end they turned out beautifully, a soft color, a modern look, to add a chic touch to any room. What do you think??

Thankful! Jacqueline
