Just so happens that Jay and Angela are doing some makeovers in their home too. When Jay bought his own house 4 years ago, he was very much a bachelor so he took whatever anyone gave him for furniture. Now they are making it their own and we got back a chair I had given him. I had it many years ago and while it's not the perfect plaid, it isn't horrid so it helps make extra seating down here and freed up my other plaid chair for another spot.
I took this bench out of the front hall and found a new home for it in the family room.
I have had a little maple table of my grandmother's for years and it has never been my style. Jen used it for awhile so I wasn't concerned that it didn't 'go' in my house. But I finally decided to make it more to my liking. It's lines are still too busy and detailed for me, but I like having a piece of Nany's and it found a new home.
And after in it's new home in our front entry (where the bench used to be).
Nany's table before:

It will be the perfect display for season pieces.
In the before picture of the family room, you can see a little red table.
But it too needed a change and here it is back in the same place after.
And this is my next painting project! My mom got this old steamer trunk in the 70's I think and painted it to match her color theme back then. Jay has used it for 4 years and this too came home with me this weekend. Once I paint it, remove some weird hardware my mom added and dull down the gold nail heads and hardware, it will be the perfect coffee table for the family room.

And don't forget ....
