Then this little jem turned up over the winter. I loved the clean simple lines.
This was another project that I finished in the house instead of the garage when the weather just wasn't cooperating.
I used General Finishes buttermilk yellow milk paint. This is a really beautiful shade of soft yellow that I return to often. I just slightly distressed the edges and finished with two coats of General Finishes satin polycrylic.
This is the easiest techinique I've found for painting knobs. I simply poke a hole through the flap of a cardboard box and attach the knobs - no fuss, no mess.
I love the way the soft yellow looks in front of the red sofa! I love red and the trailing vine fabric. And this sofa was a big departure for me. It was time to let go of my plaid sofa addiction!
I think she is the perfect finishing touch for my living room!
And don't forget that we're celebrating our first birthday here at Elizabeth & Co. and of course that means a fun giveaway. There will be seven winners! Have you entered yet? Check it out here!

Sharon you did a great job, and what a fantastic color, it looks beautiful.
Very pretty and such a lovely shade of yellow. I recently sold an antique dresser that I considered for a coffee table, very similar but just a bit too high. Yours looks just right.
I love your table! I have never used milk paint but my mother always talked about it. And now I see why. Love your color and what a beautiful finish.
And Happy Anniversary! So glad I found you at Funky Junk
The color is a great one! I just did some picture frames boards in a creamy color and distressed them and I love the look of doing that. Love your table and how it fits in
