This small side table is painted with a faux marble surface and trompe l’oeil jade beads that appear to have been casually dropped there. The necklace looks ready to scoop up and put on, doesn’t it?\u00a0 The key is in the shadows!\u00a0 The table has graceful legs with carved knees which I gilded gold. I included a photo here of the faux marble surface before I painted the beads.\u00a0 This now charming table was a rescue from a tag sale and it looked unsalvageable when I took it home.\u00a0 It had been painted with such thick black paint that the drips could almost be peeled off! I stripped it and sanded it. The broken trim on one side had been ridiculous attached with a hot glue gun! Needless to say I removed it, cleaned it up, molded a little missing length and reattached it so well that even I am not sure which side I fixed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
