Does your furniture need a reeeeeMIX? <– (I was trying to type that in my best old school DJ voice, please imagine it thusly). Kayla’s dining room set did.
But first of all, can we talk about how she found this sweet set at Goodwill for $40?! You can’t even buy a decent chair for that price at anywhere.
So with nothing much to lose besides a pair of Jacksons, she decided “What the heck, I’ll paint it blue and see how it ends up.”
Surprise! (Not really!) It ended up looking fabulous! After some distressing, wax and stain, and comfy new fabric on the seat cushions, her $40 investment paid off big. See more at Furniture Remix.
And here comes another sweet little table makeover your way. “Hmm,” you may be thinking. “That’s a pretty basic table design. I bet it got some new paint or whatever.”
Well guess what smarty pants? You’re right. It did get a new paint job. Buuuuut there’s more than that …
Corbels! C’mon, that was a little unexpected, right? What a great idea for adding some flair under there. Perfect if you’ve always wanted to use corbels but never knew quite where to stick them.
Also: CorBELS? Or CORbels? Please advise.

August 11, 2015 at 2:10 PMNext to white, blue is my favorite redo paint color. I love both of these, but that dining set is just the cat’s pajamas!

August 11, 2015 at 4:20 PMSeeing only the title, I thought “corbel” was going to be a color xD Still not exactly sure what they are (fancy scroll cut out thingies?), they make that table look better, that’s for sure!

The table with the corbels is gorgeous. Brilliant idea to use the corbels and the choice of color is amazing.
Well done to both of you! All said with *hardly* any jealousy or envy. ;-D

August 11, 2015 at 9:03 PMThese are off the charts–and I don’t even like blue!
The latter corbel is correct. Thanks for caring about grammar and pronunciation, truly.

August 13, 2015 at 6:23 AMWhat a cool idea to use corBELs! I don’t know if that’s how to pronounce it, but that’s how I said it in my head. People are so smart. And talented. Sorry about your screamy toddler. I have screamy, teething 10-month-old twins, so I feel you.
