With the girls moving out and the fact that this empty nest is need of some sprucing up, I have been haunting garage sales and estate sales. I spent one weekend just sweeping out all of the "feathers" left behind by our little chicks. But now I am motivated to make this new space somewhere that our kids want to come "home" to. Here is my first project for the empty nest sprucing.
I purchased this little table at an estate sale near our home for $3. I thought that it would look great at the top of the stairs between Lindsey and Anna's rooms. With both rooms having pink in the color schemes I wanted to bring something out into the hallway that would bring the rooms together.
Picking up my handy dandy pink spray paint, I covered the table paying more attention to the grooves and details so the the paint would settle into them.
Taking my electric sander, I worked on taking off most of the paint leaving the paint in the details behind.
To have this worn pink table at the top of the stairs between the girls' rooms will be just the right touch to bring the pink and brown from Lindsey's room together with the pink, silver and black of the room that is Anna's. Now I cannot wait to start on the new rooms.
