My second piece of furniture to re-do was a bit more challenging than the first, but still pretty easy! I just scuffed up the finish on the original, did a coat of primer, two coats of red paint, and a top coat, and affixed a new handle (which...looks upside down but functions better this way, so who knows). Here's the before and after:
Why did I choose red? Well, my living room is shades of brown (which is so unlike me) with red accents (more like me). This table is setting in my living room and looks fabulous. I even got super inspired, pulled out my sewing machine that I had never used and had gotten at our wedding and made a red pillow! I'd show you a picture but it's just a red pillow. :)
