Have you been looking at your end tables, bedside tables, and thinking they need to go! Maybe they need to be painted? They just need something.
I have some old tables, that have seen better days, but I don't want to paint them, they wouldn't fit in painted. I really can't see replacing them, because nothing new would make me happy. What I have works in the space and is just the right size. However, they do need a lift.
While I was looking around in Ikea, I found a round mirror at a very reasonable price, and thought maybe it would look good added to the top of my table. It fits very nicely, with about an inch rim on the outside.. I love it, my pie shaped table has a much newer, more current look now. And I really like the mirrored look.
Don't you think it totally changes the look?
So if you are looking at your tables, and thinking they need a face lift, try adding a mirror, and see if that helps.
Thank you so much for coming by.
Till Nest Time,
Jeannie

Hi...just wanted to stop by and thank you for visiting our home at Marty's today. Nice to meet you both and Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteyou know, your tables are rather nice
ReplyDeletebut I do understand how you might feel
they need 'something'... two years ago
I went all out and painted every piece
of furniture in my house 'white'.. really!
Even the kitchen cabinets. Now it's sorta
of Shabby chick and I'm so in love with
it.. The Mr. just thought I lost my mind..haha
Thank you so much for your visit to my blog
and for the sweet comment.
Happy Easter

Hi Sandy, I'm sure your furniture looks lovely, I'm just not that brave. Thank you so much for coming by. Happy Easter to you.

I like the mirror on that table too! Great way to give it some punch!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jill
DeleteI use mirrors on just about every flat surface in the house. I have a round side table with a water spot and a cigarette burn that I have not gotten to. Nobody but me knows this because the mirror hides the flaws.
ReplyDeleteNo one ever needs to know. I bet the mirror looks great.
DeleteJeannie
I adore mirrors and the wonderful reflections. That looks like it was the perfect answer for your table.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, Thank you so much for your comment, I actually like the table now.
DeleteJeannie

Hello ladies,
ReplyDeleteI love your mirrored table. Mirror is so elegant and I love how it reflects your treasures so nicely! Thanks for sharing at my HOME, and I will remember Jeannie. Take care and enjoy your weekend.

Such a lovely update! Thank you for sharing. You will be one of the features at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House. Pop on in and grab a feature button for your blog. Hope to see your prettiness again at the bash! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
ReplyDeleteGood Afternoon Jeannie, What a fabulous idea....this certainly updates your side table as mirrored furniture is very popular at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI can always rely on you to bring something wonderful to our attention, as who would have thought a trip to IKEA would have produced this lovely update to your table.
Sorry I have not been around to comment, but after arriving home from India, what with jet lag, it is taking me a little while to catch up with my favourite blogs.
Have a lovely day,
Best Wishes
Daphne
