Our family room furniture has been deteriorating rapidly over the last several years. We own two beautiful, long-haired, cuddly cats with nails who have torn the front panels of our furniture to shreds. The actual structure of the furniture is fine, but the upholstery needed help.
I've been wanting to highlight the black in our family room for quite some time ... our wood stove is black, our lam
ps are black, a few candle holders are black. So, I found an old pair of black pants and a can of black paint. Andrew tackled the front panels of the furniture, removing the green and adding the black, while I painted all the green legs of our end tables a nice, shiny black. The projects took a few hours, but were completely FREE! We were amazed at the results. Thought you'd like to see ...

WOW!!! Vicki - absolutely amazing! I am so impressed. You need to submit this somewhere - I don't know where - but somewhere. :)
It looks great!!!! Painting something so small can make such a big difference. I thought you got new furniture.

Wow awesome! Black is a good colour(or shade some people may say)!
I thought afterwards that I should have called this post "Cheap and Easy"!!! ha!

That is one of the most innovative things I've heard of in quite a while! Thanks for your comments about the Eiffel lamp. I got it at Hobby Lobby for $30, marked down from $60! Yay!
