I also picked up a wood tray for $2 and painted it with Americana Gloss Enamels in yellow. Nice and shiny! I cut that flourish from vinyl on my silhouette. The flourish image comes from The Graphics Fairy (who else??). I just put that directly on the tray. It can easily be changed out if the girls tire of the flourish. Yellow was the accent color in the living room while the teal is the main color.
I am so pleased with how my project turned out and the girls loved it. These are perfect for any home as they provide extra seating if you don’t need the room to set things. Plus they open up for great storage. Perfect for a small college apartment don’t you think? So anyone else move a college bound child lately? Tell me I am not the only one! Oh and be sure to stalk your second hand stores and make your own DIY upholstered coffee table.
amazing! Can you do a post on the details! I love that you were able to keep/add the trim. That is the most intimidating part! How did you do that? love! laura
Talk about a coincidence! I just posted a project (minutes before I checked out your project!)with that very same fabric! I used the baby blue instead of turquoise on the cushions for my vintage trailer. http://closetcrafterohio.blogspot.com/
I am so impressed by yours—-cording! Diana
So fabulous Angie!! I love them both! What a great combo, that yellow and blue together, it really pops!!
Very nicely done! Smart using the old upholstery as a template – I love the pattern of that fabric!
