Pink Saturday~Table Makeover Reveal

Before


Happy Pink Saturday!

Last week I shared this table and asked the question, "To paint or not to paint?". 
Needless to say, I decided to paint.



I found this piece online and it reminded me of  the can of Annie Sloan Scandinavian Chalk Paint I've had waiting to be used. I decided to go for it!


After



It turned out a warm salmon pink. I added some Pure White and a dash of Duck Egg Blue to add depth too.












Now I just have to wait and see if someone else likes it well enough to buy it and take it home!



Thank you to Beverly for hosting Pink Saturday for us and be sure to visit her blog How Sweet The Sound for all the pink links.

Happy Pink and have a marvelous weekend!

To Paint or NOT to Paint


That is my question!

I bought this table last weekend and can't decide if I should leave it or paint it. I posed the question on Facebook and so far have gotten one paint it and one paint it black and distress it.


Then I came across this picture. GORGEOUS right! I have some Scandanavian Pink Chalk Paint I've been wanting to use and the pink would be pretty with the reddish tint of the stain already on the table if I distress it and I think using some dark wax could be beautiful. However, is this going to be color people are going to be able to easily work into their homes? The table is rather long (4ft by 2ft by 30inches high) I may go for it anyway just for fun! I'll let you know how it goes.

As for not computing much, I'm still having internet issues just so you know that I'm not COMPLETELY lazy about blogging! Just a little bit lazy.

Happy Easter!



All I need to know I learned from the Easter Bunny! 

 Don't put all your eggs in one basket. 
 Everyone needs a friend who is all ears. 
 There's no such thing as too much candy. 
All work and no play can make you a basket case. 
A cute tail attracts a lot of attention. 
 Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day. 
 Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits. 
Some body parts should be floppy.
 Keep your paws off of other people's jelly beans. 
 Good things come in small, sugar coated packages. 
The grass is always greener in someone else's basket. 
To show your true colors, you have to come out of the shell.
 The best things in life are still sweet and gooey. 
May the joy of the season fill your heart. 

AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU! Happy Easter!
