Table Times Two

Our house has dark floors, we have dark leather furniture, and we brought dark furniture from our last house.  Too much darkness in our house.  I am not changing the floors, I love our leather furniture, especially with two little ones, so the other pieces have to go.  I started by buying two tables off our neighborhood Facebook page...about $60 worth of tables.  They were nice tables to begin with, but just did not fit in our house...so I changed them up a bit.  They are older tables, so nice and sturdy - solid wood.  I sanded them, painted them, distressed them, and then waxed them with a dark wax to highlight all of the fun imperfections.  No this is not everyone's style...but it sure is mine!
