So here are some sneak peaks of before and "almost" afters of some of the pieces going in the room I am doing. I will be posting the final room Friday.
The Agate Cube Table in progress. Originally a 80's maple veneer table, its getting its base gilded and turning into a giant nugget of craziness:
A lovely gray formica top office table with black based gets glossed and golden with some Greek Key O'verlays (pssst... we are running a sale until Halloween!)
Some pleather tan and hunter green piped wing backs got the royal paint treatment and a stencil up their backs and down their cushions.
I am still dying over the fact that they make a spray paint for vinyl!
And it really works.
It is awesome. Get it at Autozone.
(They are in the process of a brand change from Rustoleum,
but you can find it in their spray paint section.)
And a boring white shelf gets paint, paper and legs.
I have a bunch of other stuff to finish, but I will have agate how to's as well as a boatload of other stuff to share. If you are near Boston please come out Thursday night to say hello and see the finished room. Its for a good cause, learn more here.
To all my East Coast folks, please stay safe during Sandy. It is crazy here. A bit unnerving watching the hype, and I just walked down the street and got splashed with this. Still not near high tide, but pretty cool! All schools in Massachusetts are closed today, & we are hunkered down, fireplace lit.
I plan on gaining 5 lbs. since all I have been doing is EATING!
Be safe! Xo
