Angels at your table

Angels flock to this unique finish of old white and old ochre coffee table which really bring out the soft neutrals of the season. The angels of Peace and Joy were my first Christmas gifts from my son and daughter Joshua and Nikole. I adore them!
The table is gently distressed to bring out the French country look. It is 52 inches long and can be used as a coffee table or bench.

Time to head for the porch and your Brentwood Rocker as the sun sinks slowly in the West. Refinished in "Paris Grey" and "Pure White" by Annie Sloan, the wood is slightly distressed for that lived-in look. The curves of the Brentwood sides and finishes celebrate the vintage years of the '80's.

Painted Treasure

   On his way back from touching up the Sistine Chapel for the big election, Michelangelo turned this drab, white table into a lush garden. Well, maybe it wasn’t Michelangelo exactly, but it was someone with a “growing” talent. Kudos to the artist that hand painted the vegetables on both sides of the four legs and top. This adorable table is 24" high with a 12" square top.
