I like the tabletop vignette. Using a variety of filler for the apothecary jar was a fun idea. <br />As for your table,if you're sold on painting it, I don't think I'd use a solid white- I would use a creamy white and then glaze it so it isn't so stark. Do you have any other light colored case goods in the room? <br />Thanks for coming by for a visit. <br />:-) SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12843513751203663201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1804458805075693078.post-27286645443036439032010-08-10T10:41:19.828-05:002010-08-10T10:41:19.828-05:00Your treasures are pretty and it's cool you ca...Your treasures are pretty and it's cool you can go shopping for them in your owm attic.

Your coffee table is stunning. I love it as it, but if you really want to paint it, then do it. Thanks also for joining TTT.

There doesn't seem to be anything that color in that room, although I'm looking at a picture and you are there. Maybe OFF white, try taking a white cloth and drape it on the table and pin it under to make the table LOOK WHITE and stand back and LOOK at it...
