I went a little crazy with re-doing things before I moved. As you know I painted my bar cart and chinoiserie bird cages and also my coffee table. I still need to do my bamboo plant stand and my bamboo chairs, but that is another story for another day.
Anyway, I have always loved glass top, brass coffee tables. I originally bought my glass top coffee table with the intention of painting it a more neutral color but just never got around to it until last month. The table is timeless when it comes to style, but the color did not match my new abode's decor. However, this was not a problem a little spray paint could not fix!
I was pleasantly surprised to find out my preferred color of spray paint was available in a special primer/paint bottle when I visited Home Depot. I snatched two bottles and went home and got to work. I sprayed on one coat one evening and then added an additional coat for maximum coverage (the brown took more coverage as you can guess) the next night.

Wow, it looks great! I would have never thought to do spray paint it to look brass! I also love that navy blue chevron bowl you have!
Amazing what a little can of spray paint can do!!
Your doing a great job on your new place.
Ahhhh the one Jaye's piece (blue/white) I wanted that I didn't get to order! Looks cute, but I'm sure you'll change it up again by Sunday! ;)
So chic! You did a great job, and I am sure it is perfection with the rest of your décor!
Wow it does make a super difference! Love it! The new place is looking fabulous.
Wow! That really looks like a brand new piece! Great job :)
Wow! Great job, Hopsy!
Wow, it looks great! It looks like a completely new piece. I can't wait until my husband and I are out of an apartment and can paint to our heart's desire!
Cute! I'm always impressed with your skills!
Love the new look!!
What a change a little bit of gold spray paint can bring about! I'm eyeing some tired old things around my house now!
You are on such a great do it yourself streak :) First the bar cart and now a great coffee table! I love it!
Your use of spray paint amazes me! I wish I had the eye to see what stuff could be. Your new place looks great!
That looks great! I love that Carolyn Roehm book you have on presentations, it is such a great resource! Are those the staffordshires we got from our weekend at The Greenbrier?
Amazing work. You are very crafty!
