We had glorious weather here Easter Saturday - sun, blue sky and just the right amount of breeze that makes me want to make or fix or rearrange something - anything. Decided I’d give the top of my dining room table a quick do over that I’d been thinking about for a while. I’d painted stripes on the top about 5 years ago which I have always loved but it's taken a battering as all good dining tables should. I repainted the white stripes for starters being none too careful with the edges because they would be covered. The wood stained stripes that alternated had always been a touch darker than what I really liked but who has the energy to be faffing about sanding back stain! So Contact paper with a parquetry pattern to the rescue! Seemed like a big fat cheat but I have to say I am pretty darn happy with it. It's lighter, more casual and added some much needed texture. Bit of yellow coming through which is closer to original colour you can still see around the trim and works in just snazzy with my thrifted check sheets on the day bed that I found Saturday. Could not get them out of the store fast enough. Scroll for a gander. Butterfly cushion thrifted just recently as well
