I am taking my girls to the Taylor Swift concert this evening and we are gearing up to get ready to go!
Before we leave, I am sharing my sweet gateleg table with you. I bought it a few years ago and only had time to throw on a coat of primer. I have used it all over my house. Here it is with only the primer applied on it.
I spent time yesterday giving it a real makeover and used General Finishes Queenstown Gray. I haven’t seen this color a lot in the blog or Pinterest world. However, I love it. It’s a calmer look against the bright background.I also changed out the knob on the little drawer to give it some sparkle. The milk paint was smooth and easy to apply and has given the table a great sheen. I’m now off to DC for T. Swift! They’re calling for storms and it’s an outdoor venue at Nats Stadium – fingers crossed we get to see the show 🙂

This is lovely….And you are so amazing! You’re not afraid to tackle anything! I see all of the turned legs and detail and think “Ug!” 🙂

I like the paint color against your fabulous coral wall. Have fun at the TS concert!

Hello! The table is wonderful as are all of your creations! You have a way with paint! I have a question for you…I have saved all of your emails for a long long time, hoping to find a color to paint my bedroom furniture…truly afraid to pick a wrong color and regret it. I have blue and cream (or off white) toile to use for bedding…I guess I could always paint it an off white but…I keep going back to perfect greige and wonder if that might be the answer. Any help would be appreciated! The wall color could be anything…I do hope that the weather cooperated and that you all had a wonderful and exciting time at the Taylor Swift concert!!!

Hi Diane, thanks so much and yes, we did have a great time at the concert! What a show that girl puts on! As far as your bedroom, it is difficult as I haven’t actually seen it. However, General Finishes Coastal Blue is the perfect navy to complement any blue and cream bedding and you could do the walls griege with more of the gray in it than the beige. Best of luck!
Diane Westbrook
Thanks so much for your answer. It is rather small bedroom with a dresser, chest, nightstands, bed and a chair. Navy would be lovely, however I think it would be too dark for this small room. The furniture is mahogany now and it is so dark in the room. I guess I will just have to do more thinking…thanks so much again!
Suzanne
Ah, I see. You know that pale gray or cream goes with just about anything!
