FRENCH DINING TABLE


We have now entered into the official CRAZY season for the Wright family. November is full of birthday's, anniversaries and Thanksgiving with 3 families.  We have my birthday, baby girl's birthday, husbands birthday, mother in law's birthday, our anniversary, nephews birthday, then BAM....Thanksgiving. This is absolutely my favorite time of year but it gets a little crazy!

My little one is turning four on the 12th. Her birthday present from us was Disney on Ice tickets and we used them tonight. I have to admit, I probably enjoyed it just as much as the kids did. There is something about Disney that makes you feel all warm inside. This is the marketing genius part:)  I guess that's how they get away with selling 15.00 snow cones and 18.00 souvenir photos.  I was smart this time and took our light spinners from Disney world. They both loved having them and they were different than anyone else's.

In the middle of birthday shopping and cleaning my house for the weekend, I was able to sneak away for a minute to take a French Dining table to Urban Suburban that I just finished. I was inspired by a table in Annie Sloan's book, "Creating the French Look." She had taken a basic dining table, painted it gray and gold leafed the edges. I used Paris Gray on my table as she did, but I distressed mine a little bit more and used the gold gilding wax.

I LOVE how it turned out. I think it would look wonderful for the Holidays, dressed with some sparkle.



Have a great weekend!

    There are some of the options available online that provides a wide range of fixtures made up of different elements which is too in reasonable costs according to your funds and the treatment will depend on the employees choice of a person what he prefers and how much he can spend.
