Cari sent me an email asking if I had anything that would work as an additional bedside table. I sent her pictures of a variety of choices and she fell in love with this curvy girl.
She asked for blue. Again I sent her a variety of choices and we settled on Mariner Blue from the Martha Stewart line, although I had it mixed in the Behr Ultra Premium Plus Paint and Primer in One - love skipping that priming step!
That little top shelf is so sweet!
And Cari asked for a cute knob. I think this one qualifies.
Don't you just love the curvy lines and the soft cottage feel? And in that shade of blue, she's just perfect for a beach house!
When Cari picked up her bedside table, she brought me another table that she no longer wanted. With it's formal feel and straight lines, it was such a contrast to the first one.
I had a brand new can of chalk paint in Provence that I was anxious to open, so I started painting immediately.
I used Old White as an accent color.
Again, I used the Annie Sloan soft wax. I love the way it goes on so smoothly, but it does take some time to set-up properly before you can buff it.

Oh, I love the curvy gal, too! lol I really love them both but there is just something so darling about the first one. Perfect for a beach house! :)
They both look great! I love the color you chose! That straight table is just adorable!
Love them ~ especially love the white accents on the second one, they really pop now!
Very cottage. Love the blue paint. Nice look on the table. Thanks for sharing.

Love them both... I can see the curvy one fitting into a beach-y place! The curves are kind of like the waves!
How are you feeling about the chalk paint these days? I'm still wanting to try it but have been a bit "on the fence" because of the cost. The provence color is one that is on my list!

What a sweet curvy little table. I'd love one like that! I wish she would send you a picture to share with us after she's put it in her bedroom. The other table is darling! You do wonderful work.
be a sweetie,

Really cute! I'm going through a birds and blue phase right now. Everything I love is this color! I love the glass knob, and the white pull. Gives the pieces that something special.
I think they both look great! I do love the curvy one best though! What a sweet little bedside table that would be.
The curvy gal is just gorgeous, love the colour too!
You worked miracles on both of these little gals! They both must be happy in their new "blue" phase!
Both tables look great in blue! I'm actually loving the second table.

Those curves are awesome!! They booth great in blue. :)
So cute, great re-do! I would love to try that chalk paint! I'm just wondering if I can justify the expense?? Also, do you paint with a brush or roller? I'm painting a huge piece of furniture right now and not sure what to use! Help!
