What's on your coffee table?

Not only do they look elegant stacked on your table or ottoman, coffee table books convey your tastes and interests to your guests. Paired with a small vase of fresh flowers and a hand-poured candle, and voila, the perfect centerpiece for your Living Room! Check out a few of our favorites, especially the last one:




1. "The Welcoming House" by Jane Schwab and Cindy Smith





2. "Modern Glamour" by Kelly Wearstler





3. "The Charleston Interior" by J. Thomas Savage






4. "An Ocean Garden" by Josie Iselin






5. "Underwater Dogs" by Seth Casteel

Chalk Paint 101

Need an easy way to update old frames? Using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Duck Egg Blue, we painted over distressed off-white picture frames for a fresh new look. 
1. This was our original distressed frame.

2. We used the color Duck Egg Blue from Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Line
              3. Before and After photos of the newly painted and re-distressed frame! No priming needed just painted right over old frame and distressed with sandpaper.


                                             

4. Completed with mat and photo!
