Thursday I showed you a couple of projects I had for my sister. We found a couple of night stands that didn't quite match, one of which I made into a chalkboard nightstand for my nephew that you can see here, and the other was going to go in her living room.
This is the pair of new living room fixtures "AFTER":
I took two different finished pieces and painted them to match!
And gave those old brass pulls a dark brown finish. (oooh much better on the eyes!)
So here is the old night stand and cart before:
Now forgive the flash but the room was dark... Here is the new Side Table (which holds her DVD's perfectly) and coffee table that tie the room together quite well.
Moral of the story: Sometimes you have to look with a different set of eyes when finding something functional for your home. Consider space if it's an issue as well.
I'm gonna stop now because typing right under this carpet picture is starting to give me Vertigo.
Hope you have a great day!
