I have had this coffee table for about 4 years. It was my grandmother's and my mom gave it to me in college one year when I needed a table. For years I've been wanting to do something to it to make it fit in better with my shabby chic style. I recently moved into a house with 2 of my good friends from high school and decided I was finally going to do it!
So I decided to paint it and my sofa table (which is the same dark wood). I painted the coffee table base white (SW "Greek Villa") and the sofa table a sort of aqua color (SW "Raindrop"). My friend Laura told me about the sample pints at Sherwin Williams- so I have been using that paint- it goes on so smooth and doesn't take too many coats! I think they turned out pretty cute! I wish the sofa table color had been a shade darker, but it all goes nicely together! I still need to sand them a little to give it that shabby chic look- more photos to come when I am done :)
