Good morning all!
I've been on the hunt for a new coffee table for a while now. After I got my industrial side tables, I felt like we needed something different. Plus I was bored with the old one.....after 8 years, I was ready for a change!
Last week, I came across this upcycled beauty at Heritage Square Antique Mall. There's a vendor there who has quite an assortment of upcycled furniture and when I saw this table created from an old metal base and barn wood top, I was smitten!
Got the green light from the hubby, brought her home, gave her a thick coat of poly and then styled her up....
I started collecting old french books about a year ago. I found one and then hit a dry spell! When my in-laws went to Canada for a wedding, I asked if they had time to see if they could find any. My mother-in-law came through for me in a big way! Just look at these amazing books she brought back...
And then my sweet booth partner Keely gifted me with this....
It is a portfolio of photos of french antique furniture. It ties on each side with ribbon.
It is pretty cool!
Then I got lucky and found a couple more that I placed in my cupboard...
With the addition of the new coffee table and the husband on vacation in Vegas, I decided to hit a few big box shops searching for new pillows. Anybody else LOVE pillows? They are such an easy and inexpensive way to change the look of a room! I found a pair of these silky rose pillows at Joann's for 50% off...
And this french pillow was a Marshall's find...
So my family room ended up getting a mini-makeover over the past few days!
That's what I've been up to here at home.
On another note, my friend Janet of Open Market Style is opening a brick and mortar shop called White Cottage and her grand opening is tonight! You can click over to her blog to see some sneak peek photos and get the address! Best of luck to Janet at Cyndi as they begin this new adventure together!!
Have a great day, wherever you are!
