From trash to treasure.

Not long ago I received an e-mail from my BFF, it was an invite to follow her on Pinterest.  I had not been on or heard of it before.  I clicked the link, created a login and a few click later I had a new addiction!    There are so many cool things out there!  I LOVE all the refinished furniture projects.  I love them so much in fact that I wanted to refinish something.  So last weekend the hubby and I were out and about and stopped by the local Goodwill.  I found a little coffee table for $10.  Needless to say, it came home with me.  I cleaned, sanded, primed, painted and varnished it.  Now it sits in my living room.

After.  

I was going to replace the marble with glass be decided to keep it because it is an orange red color and the colors in my living room is reds and chocolate brown.  I think it turned out great.  The glass on the table will be 2 different shades of red and a cream color very soon (also something I saw on Pinterest).  Once they are complete I will post pics.
