Welp... I'm at it again.
Anywhoodie
As most of you know, we moved into our new house in February and I've piddled and tweaked and fiddled and faddled and it's all slowly coming together.... but I've never been quite settled with the tv wall. The dreaded tv wall that is THE focal wall. ugh.
I'll show you where I started and kind of talk you thru what's changed (mayyyybe even 2-3 times since February... maybe)
*but first. my photos are crappy. i'm sorry. blogging about this was kind of an after thought and i was too far into my thought process to go get the good camera. sorry.*
So you know, the iron shelves were once black. Now, they're gold.
The urns/planters were once a cool distressed concrete, then green, then hot pink, then (photoed) white. I've painted them. Again.
Matte black
I used my trusty Frog tape and taped off the rim around the top. I wanted to have the black and white contrast and have them play off the chevron urns on the mantel.
Buuuuuut they weren't quite "finished".
So.
I got out my Rub N Buff
Yep. That's just what it needed!
whoops. this pict is lop-sided. how do I fix that here?!
oh well.
Here's the "bigger picture" :)
YEP! I like it waaayyy better!
Now.
About that orange iron piece....
Please tell me we're all alike and slightly obsess over our schtuff...
hugs.
