You can call it whatever you like, but I call it ugly! If you know me or follow this blog at all, you know that I love to turn regular furniture into.....BLACK furniture (& sometimes Red---I'll admit I go through fazes). If you're not a regular, you can verify this here or here.
About 2 or 3 days ago, I took on the kitchen table! It had to be done. I painted it black of course to match the rest of the furniture. Which would have been fine, except that there are 6 chairs that go around it, and I can't very well LEAVE them natural looking. But chairs are very deceiving when it comes to the amount of time they take to paint. Sadly, in my HASTE, I didn't give the chairs a onces-over with the sander. (Like Grandad always taught me). Shame on me! I know better. So, one of the chairs came out looking like this masacure that you see above you. Strangely enough, the rest are totally fine!(I hope).
Lesson learned!
On a side note: Farmboy didn't exactly know that I was "taking on" the kitchen table. He wasn't upset---just a little concerned that my black painting feddish may bleed into our alder cabinetry & front door. I assured him that I was being creative---not CRAZY!
I'll be posting the final look soon, so watch for it's fabulousness.
