My b-day is tomorrow, and me and the hubby are planning on going out and eating way too much and drinking some good wine. I love dates with my hot husband!!!
Anyhow, I have been working on a little something I need some help with. A little audience participation if you will. So please let me know what you think!
Last month- on the way to an engagement party for some dear friends, we made a side trip to Nadaeu 5 minutes before the store closed, and came out with this console table.
Good bones but I didn't like the finish. So OF COURSE a little PEACOCK BLUE paint fixes everything!
In process. Luke will tell you that I am a nightmare when I paint. I am very OCD about it. He is not allowed to touch it. I have a system. Sand, wipe, sand again, wipe down. VERY THIN COAT of paint, dry AT LEAST 8 hours. Paint again. let dry. lightly sand. Final coat. Sit for 8 hours and done!
And here it is in its new home. Sorry for the bad picture quality! And that lamp has to go I know- I am just looking for the perfect one to replace it!
My dad was appalled that I payed for a piece of driftwood, he was adamant that I could find the same thing in my backyard! Ahh the price of design.And now here is what I need help with. The knobs that came with the console are BORING. So I found some perfect ones from Anthropologie. Sigh... amazing.
But I need 8 and they are about $10 a knob. That adds up. So I found some other options at Hobby Lobby but I can't decide if I like them. HELP! Do you like any of them, none of them??? Should I just go with the Anthropologie ones?

I think you need to wait and come shopping at the Depot with me! They had A ROOM FULL OF KNOBS and pulls. I need some too. And they were all less than $2. I dont love the hobby lobby ones, but I am too frugal to pay $10 each! EEK!
