Pretty Pukey

 Dec 13, 2010

Coffee table makeovers are especially exciting to me right now because I find myself in need of one, due to an unfortunate series of miscommunications a few weeks ago which resulted in craigslist buyers walking away with all of my living room furniture right down to the throw pillows, when I specifically instructed my husband to only sell only the couches, this is what happens when I go out of town, sigh.

Anyhoo,
I'm suppressing my ragetotally over it.


So this one is especially inspiring, from Kammy at Kammy's Korner. She found this table for $1 at a yard sale, painted it black, popped out the petrified swirls of cat vomit inserts and had glass cut to fit instead. Easy, breezy, beautiful!

No, petrified cat vomit is so much prettier than that. Impressive makeover, wow, cannot even believe it's the same table! Also, I now understand why you backed over your husband's stuff in the driveway (mentioned in previous post).

"...petrified swirls of cat vomit" just made my day.

WOW! There's NO WAY I would've guessed that was the same table!

Aren't husbands great??

A DOLLAR! Seriously? How do people get so lucky!

And I sort of sold everything out of my bedroom last week, including our lamps, which now makes it dark in there, and my husband is not so pleased. But i couldn't help it, I have the need for a makeover. DUH!

Oh my! I can just imagine when you walked in and all of your living room furniture was gone!
cat vomit! ha! It looks amazing!
And for one dollar!
Have a pretty day!

Seriously, that's the same table? Fantastic job. The glass inserts really look great-although pretty much anything she did to cover the cat vomit inserts would have been an improvement.

Another good thing about my new laminate wood floors....it's easy to scrape petrified cat vomit off it. With 2 long haired cats it's only normal and as far as it being petrified..well not everything appears new. lol
