Entry Way Table Redo....

Hubs and I scored this at a yard sale:

It didn't match a single piece of furniture in my house.  My entryway has a big closet in it and wouldn't hold a piece this big, but I knew exactly where I wanted to put it.  Therefore, it had to be painted black:

Much better!  Total cost = $15.00 :)

Candlestick Trio Redo...

                                             I've had this candlestick trio for awhile now:

So I did this to them:

Ahhhhh!  Much better!

I embellished the candles as well:

                                 
                                    I wrapped burlap around them and then made fabric flowers for each one..

I love the red paint.  I'm redoing a dresser in the same color and can't wait to get working on it!
