I'm always left with spare parts after I move things around too. They end up on the floor until I move them down into the basement for storage. I love your table makeover. Giving furniture a fresh coat of paint is always fun. I like the summer vignette you gave it too. Some of those paintings are so unique too!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16938178631385143773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434601505681405514.post-53514226752195733902014-08-10T16:54:32.615-07:002014-08-10T16:54:32.615-07:00Carol, when I got to the part about repainting you...Carol, when I got to the part about repainting your table, I had to laugh--this is exactly the sort of thing I would do :) Your end result is just lovely!
