Stain to Paint Sofa Table

I seriously think I could paint every stained piece of furniture in my house a bright shade of white.  With hardwood floors and dark furniture I need to brighten the house up a bit! So I am super excited to share this easy transformation of a sofa table that went from stain to paint!.  I moved the sofa table  from our master bedroom to the dining room. I love what less than a quart of paint can do to transform a stained piece of furniture.  Here is the dining room as of 3 weeks ago: all the furniture is dark wood.  Check out the before pictures of the dining room here.  FYI.. in this photo the  room looks like 1978 powder blue eye shadow worn by my mother,  but it’s more gray than blue. diningroom1

Here is the before table:

Painting the table in the bathroom.  I was multi-tasking! You don’t want to know! Kidding!

    Popping over from Wake Up Wed! I host a link up on SarahCelebrates.com for DIY, crafts and upcycles (if you made it you should share it). Stop by! I can’t say which one I like more, the dark or light, both are beautiful. I tend to go dark in my living area and bright white in the basement. Try to make it as bright and sterile looking as possible down there =)

    Wow, it made a big difference for such a subtle change. I really like the shelf much better white! I love transforming things with paint! Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday!
