We're back from our friend's wedding. It was a beautiful day, and the bride and groom were gorgeous. I even managed to stay at the party till 1.30 am !!! I feel so tired now ... But it was worth it !
Here I am with my darling sisters ...
... and with my big belly !
This week I've been working on a little table for the nursery. It's not the first one I picked (see here), but a new one I've found at my favorite thrift store, for 5€ I think.
So, after sanding (ouch, my back !!), applying some primer and 2 coats of white paint, I've decided to add a fun touch by using turquoise chalkboard paint on the top. I'd bought the paint a long time ago, but didn't get a chance to try it before. I'm pretty pleased with the result.
Here it was before : great shape, but with damaged wood ...
During the project ...
And here's the result (with my little Egmont rabbit lamp on it) :
With the light on ...
Just to give you an idea of the atmosphere at night ... Great for night breastfeeding !
And since my paint brushes were out, I also gave an old random plastic tray a new look with some black chalkboard paint (I feel so foolish not to have taken a "before" picture, it had some weird flowers on it !) ...
I don't know what's with me now, but I can't help picturing everything with chalkboard paint on it. Is it serious doctor ?














quel joli nid tu as fait !
ReplyDeleteOh ! C'est vraiment joli, j'aime bcp ce que tu en as fait.
ReplyDeleteJe voulais te demander :"my favorite thrift store" tu peux nous en dire plus, c'est une chaine ou une petite boutique ?
Merci beaucoup, je suis ravie que ça vous plaise. J'ai trouvé la table chez Emmaüs (celui de Bouguenais au sud de Nantes), mais je chine également à Troc.com, la Trocante et dans les vide-greniers ...
ReplyDeleteI love the little table you've transformed for the nursery - goes so well with the rest of the room and is such a lovely piece of furniture.
