A few years ago my husband bought a kitchen table off of Craig’s List. When he went to pick it up the guy was also selling several other furniture pieces. My husband worked a deal and brought home the kitchen table, plus two more small tables.<\/p>\n

While I loved the functionality of this table, it is not my “style.” Not that I really have a style, but this table seemed more country to me and my house is a little more modern. For the past two years I’ve thought about painting this table, but with Cora around most painting projects are shelved until she goes to college.<\/p>\n

After we painted our walls this table looked out of place. I considering painting it about \u00a0six different colors (black, white, red…) and then I went all wild and crazy and much to my teenagers’ horror decided to paint it bright blue.<\/p>\n

I also removed the brass fixtures and changed out the knobs. I originally painted the knobs, but didn’t like them so I purchased new knobs at Target. (The new knobs are brushed nickel, even though they look brassy in the photo)<\/p>\n
