This is the blog post where I post a picture of my little living room that is in the early stages of decorating and ask for suggestions.
You see, a few years ago, I found this table at a garage sale and it began pleading with me to give it a new home. For $10, I couldn’t see why not. I loved it. I still do.
It’s just that… it needs a change. A face lift. I like change.
It needs help.
Sometimes, I look at it and think, oh little table, I love you.
Other times, I think, eeh, little table, you’re not doing it for me.
So, getting rid of the table isn’t an option, because, I want to keep it. So, maybe you hate it, but don’t suggest the trash as a solution. Also, I’m not looking for, “buy a new table or new couch.” There are other things higher on the list… waiting for a chance to become part of our home… and we’re all waiting patiently on… the budget, (collective sigh).
Oh budget, that we love and hate at the same time. Thank you for keeping us in line.
I told you, work in progress, but it’s our work in progress, so that’s something. For now, all the furniture stays… unless, a new lovely couch appears at our front door and my husband denounces his love for his love seat of dark green and extreme softness.
But, let’s focus, on the table. She’s in need of a makeover. What can I do? Please send me your best ideas, links, color schemes, diys, etc.
Help!! Our little home will thank you.
I’ll keep you posted on the progress.
P.S. I’m also hunting for the perfect fabric to redo the lamp shade.
