Oui Oui Frenchey Tables :-)
Hi again, friends! It's good to be posting again! I can't believe how quickly time is passing by. I have been so busy with work, the shop, weddings, painting and family schedules... all I have to say, is it's a good thing my head is attached to my body, haha!

As you can see, I just finished up a pair of these tables I found on Craigslist. I only took pictures of one, but I do have a set of two. I LOVE the lines. The curve of the legs and the edges on the bottom shelves give these beauties a French feel. The carvings are so pretty, I thought accenting them in a different color was a perfect idea!

Unfortunately, in the craziness that is my life, I forgot to take before pictures of the tables. However, for your entertainment, I did get the above shot of cat prints on my fresh paint! Such are the dangers of working with 5 animals in your home. I've been painting in my dining room on items that are small enough because my garage is LOADED to the gills with projects.  I walked in to the kitchen and 30 seconds later came back to this mess. Animals!

I really like the accents on these tables! So pretty! I pained them in ASCP French Linen.

I used a very small paintbrush to hand paint the doodads on the legs and sides. I had hoped I'd get away with one coat, but it required two, so it was a little time consuming, but well worth it!

I don't know how many projects, over the years, I've had to fix because of our animals. Your table turned out great though! Thanks for stopping by and linking up to Fluster Buster's Creative Muster Party! Looking forward to seeing what you're going to link up next week.
