before and after: chevron dining table
October 27, 2010
more furniture reno! actually, there is much much more to come!
this little table and mismatching chairs came from our local thrift store, for about $20.
after being completely inspired by laurie’s herringbone wall design, i decided to go for it! i used her same technique, but spray painted the table with gold paint before i taped off the design in beige and khaki. i topped it off with a 3 coats of protective enamel, stained the legs cherry to match the chairs, and recovered the seats in an ivory and green leaf print.
trust me, i know our carpet it terribly ugly and we have doors everywhere, but hey, i’m working with it! we’ll only be here until april, so the tacky stays.
a thrifted mirror in the center used as a tray for the essentials and a pretty fall bouquet for the centerpiece.
and one picture of toaster, just for kicks! i think we have a knack for turning our dogs into people..

That table looks amazing! Fantastic job! The chairs are very sweet too. Unfortunately, I think the dog kind of steals the spotlight :)
I love this! It’s really creative and not a makeover you see every day. Thanks for posting it!!!
Wow you just made my day, not only do I LOVE what you did to your dining table, so creative, I saw a glimpse of the “Grow” print! I can’t believe it made it to Colorado with you:)
PS, the gold on the table is such a great touch!
My goodness you’re a talented gal! I’m so impressed! And, love the pic of your pup, Toaster!
Absolutely beautiful redo! My eyes didn’t catch the gold at first glance, what a nice surprise and my favorite part!
The ultimate chevrons! What an awesome table to have! Makes me want to paint something… Anything! Or weave chevrons. That would be fabulous!
