Tossed and Turned Tuesday–I “Union Jack”–ed

I seriously never thought I would do one of these because, this may sound weird, but I wasn’t fond of the bold colors.  Then one day as I was blog hopping from party to party, I saw one someone had posted that I absolutely LOVED!!! All three colors she used were green. They went from darker green to a lighter shade of green. I LOVED it!! I don’t know who it was out there that inspired me, but it was awesome!! 
This is how mine turned out!


And remember that square this table had on all four sides? I didn’t want it to get lost in one solid color so I actually incorporated it into the design. That was really what sold me on using this Union Jack theme for this table. 

Here it is again in it’s “before” stage. You can see how it worked perfectly for this particular theme.



I used a blue color I had on hand and the detail is actually not white. It’s a light gray almost silver color. It totally looks white on but in the right light you can tell it’s not. The light blue that is in the center is a mix between both blue and gray. Total cost of this table… FREE!!  I used what I had on hand and the table was from my friend!


Almost forgot…I used lots of blue tape for this bad boy! I had that on hand as well so still didn’t pay anything.
Well I hope you liked it!!  I’ll be linking it to a few parties. Hope to see you there!
