Another Idea for Chicken Wire

Hello!! I just got back last night from our little adventure down south!! We had beautiful weather for the majority of the time and enjoyed it to the fullest. I am not going to lie I had a hard time coming back to this cold, damp, dreary weather. I could have used a couple more weeks down in the sunshine. It just does something for the body and mind. I guess the saying goes that all good things must come to an end...and I guess that is what happened.

Anyhow onto a brighter note I am back and ready to share with you yet another chicken wire idea. I seem to love chicken wire lately and I think a lot of people out there do as well. I took this old table that had glass on the top and repainted it not just once but twice!! I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do with it I guess. Do you ever run into pieces that just don't look right after painting it? Anyhow, I painted it a white the first time and distressed the sides. It just didn't really jump out at me when I was completed and I was wondering why. Well the glass on the top of this table is really scratched and I don't think any color would hide that fact! So I tried covering it with paper....nope that didn't work. So with a couple good ideas from the peanut gallery (my Mom and Sister) I decided to put chicken wire underneath the glass. I then also repainted the piece and distressed it with stain. I was much happier with the outcome then the first time around. It just goes to show you that anything goes.

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday...only two more days to go until the weekend!!

Here is a picture of the boring, old table before the chicken wire was added.

Here it is after with the new paint job and chicken wire added underneath the glass. I think it makes it more unique and fun.
