This is a table Shayne gave me to paint. I was nervous...see my mind doesn't work very well when it comes to spacial relations....so taping this was difficult for me.

It's not perfect, but I really like it!

I love it Allison!! It probably helps that my husband is British and I love my in-laws. ;) If you can think of a reasonable way to ship it to Pasadena, I am interested in buying it!
ReplyDeleteOh I like how you used muted colors for a different take on the union jack. And your not the last to do one - I still haven't painted a union jack but I really want to do one!
ReplyDeletei also love the muted colors- it looks awesome! i haven't yet done this.... maybe i need to try. maybe one day.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean it's not perfect???!!!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love it! : )
Allison your color choice is spot on especially with all that distressing, it looks like it was meant to be. And the aged character is truly charming, love it.
ReplyDeleteI love the color choice too! Especially that the natural wood is showing through.

ReplyDeleteGreat job, and I too love the more muted colors on this piece!
Oh it's really so pretty. My first thought was I wish i had one :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I still haven't made one...but now I think I just might have to. I've loved watching the swim trials. They are happening just up the road (an hour) from me.

I haven't done a Union Jack either... I really like yours!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up to the Bloggy Olympics Paint Event!
I love the colors you used and the distressing is just perfect! That is just the sweetest little table I have seen in a long time!

ReplyDeleteNot Perfect?! Looks perfect to me. LOVE it! Your choice of colors was spot on and I love the distressing that brings in more of the burnt red you used.
ReplyDeleteAmazing!
That is darling, loving that blue!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I like how you toned down the colors. I have yet to do the Union jack.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I love how the colors are not so bright and all the distressing!
ReplyDeleteIt looks perfect to me! I'm going to give this a try one of these days. Have a great weekend Allison :)

I love this redo! I have a dresser that is longing (yes, it has been talking to me) for something like this. You are super creative!
ReplyDeleteTanya :)
