This cute table has a lot of family meaning. It was made by my grandfather, and was in his house for as long as I can remember. When we cleaned out his house, it went to my mom's house. When she moved last August, it came home with me.
I love all the curves and detail: I usually like clean straight lines, but looking at this and touching each curve takes me right back to my grandfather's workshop and is a direct connection to him.
I decided to move some things things around in the foyer to find a home for it. As much as I love this beautiful table (which ends up being a nerf-gun holder!), I wanted something more substantial here.
We bought this mirror years ago at a craft show, and I fell in love with the little tile detail around the edge.
I've also been wanted to add a little touch of a different color in the house, and came home with these shades of blues and turquoise.
So after a quick little makeover, I have what I think is a cute little addition to our foyer.
Interested? Check back, I'll have update photos soon! One more coat to go....
