Shelly and Anna managed to get their hands on some black paint, and couldn't help themselves from attacking the Coffee Table and End Tables in the front room.
Here's what it looked like before they began:
Then they got to working.....
After many hours, and dealing with a husband that came home grumpy and causing a little commotion (I am sorry for that!) she ended up with some cute black tables for the front room.
Even the old pillows on the couches got replaced!
So, thank you to Shelly for making our house cute, 'cuz we all know I certainly wouldn't!
With the new Decor, I can now bring my Bear Rug down from Dad's and put it up since it will match the tables!

Good luck with the Bear rug, but something tells me it wouldn't go very good with the current decor.
Shelly, I think the tables look much better. From the pictures it looked like you also "stressed" them so they aren't just solid black. That must have taken a long time, but it sure makes them look good!!!
Holy Crap! Did you do all of that yesterday? You guys are amazing! I think it looks fantastic and want to come see it in person. I just wish you lived closer so you could help me with some of my projects :o).
It's all thanks to Anna, she is the decorator, I'm the one that follows her directions!!
Hey Tiff, We'd be willing to travel.
'Distressing' is actually the easy part, sanding is the time consuming part that I Hate! I love distressing anything that I can get my hands on.
ya i think it looks cool but i dont think the pilows just match with the couch...but i still think it looks cool =)
A little paint really goes a long way. The room looks great Shelly!
The sanding does suck big time. I tried painting a kitchen table years ago and didn't sand it down enough. After a couple months the paint started peeling off!
The black does look very nice! And once again you get the award for getting what you want out of what you have! How do you do that? One question. What happens when you get tired of Black. I like the way black looks. I just don't care for the way dust shows up so much on black.
Looks good, I like the change!
