FEELIN' BLUE

My inlaws gave me some free furniture about 8 years ago. The buffet was solidly built and I ended up painting it a glossy black colour

I have had it black for about 2 years and didn't want black in the living room, where I am desperately trying to add colour. I bought some orange/red paint to do paint the stand

How ugly is that? It was not even close to what I wanted. Sigh. What to do, what to do. While rummaging through my paint closet, I saw that I had lots and lots of, that's right, turquoisey blue paint left!!! Yeah.

First, though, I had to take the top drawer out of the cabinet and buy a piece of plywood to put in that space. Then I covered the wood with some leftover Elvis material. Looking good so far. Here it is with the first coat of paint

Then, I got my trusty walnut stain out and painted and wiped the whole thing. I wasn't sure what knobs to use, so I just put the old ones back on.

I also painted a few of the picture frames surrounding the tv, to get rid of the black on the walls

I love the pop of colour on the wall

Now I am just debating whether to do the other set of frames red. What do you think?

So, now I am feelin' blue about my tv stand - but in a good way!!!

I am a party animal
