A good friend (I can't remember who, so if it's you - thanks!) recommended I try deepening my colour palette a bit during the winter, I picked up some new tints I'd been wanting to try. I fell in love for this deep, rich teal grey colour. It's so regal and soothing! I did my usual sanding priming, painting and finishing. The paint was a semi-gloss finish so it has a real girlish feel to it. I think the result is super cute, would go great in everything from a living room to a bedroom!
If you live in the Winnipeg area and would love to take home the Regal Teal Side Table, you can do so here!
Also, did you notice anything different about my 'after' photos? I've been wanting to get a new camera for a while now - my dinky digital point and shoot just doesn't cut it when I look at some of the other gorgeous photos out there in blogland. So my sweet photographer friend Leah generously offered me her old Canon Rebel XTi for a while to do a test drive. How amazing is that? This is my first attempt with the camera and I'd love to hear your tips and tricks on taking great shots with a DSLR!
Have a lovely rest of your weekend friends!
Oh my gosh, Lenore - what shade is that table? I feel like I just bought the same shade today for the dresser I'm working on.
ReplyDeleteOh and FYI - Home Depot won't colour match Martha Stewart paint :( Apparently they're under some contract and can't.

It looks awesome - i love love that color!!! If you get any good tips for the camera let me know because i just got a Canon T2i and don't really know how to use it. I need to take a class i think lol
ReplyDeleteThanks all! Nicole, the colour I used on the table was a Benjamin Moore mistint so unfortunately I don't have a colour name to share...but my walls are painted Grey Wisp by Benjamin Moore as well (but colour matched to a much cheaper CIL paint!). Good luck with your painting!
