Coffee table make over

A few weeks ago I wrote that I wanted our living room to have a few hints of the industrial style. I'm no where ready yet, but made a few starts. Like with the coffee table. At first we removed the legs and replaced them with casters. But I didn't like the colour of the wood anymore, so we sandpapered it. I really like the result and so there's no need of buying a new table. :P

Natural simplicity

Got very inspired again today. This time by these lovely pictures below. Even though I'm more into colour and a more "crowded" home, I really do like this as well. The first picture is my fave. What is yours?

A hint of industrial please

Yes, I'm sure. Been sure for a few weeks now. I want things in our house to have a hint of the industrial style. Been very inspired by some of you bloggers and now I want it myself. So today we bought casters for the coffee table. It looks so different, much cooler. I could show a before and after picture, but I still need to work some magic with the sandpaper before I'm really satisfied. And earlier this week we ordered some industrial toolboxes to store the magazines in. Hope to receive those soon. And next project, after I finished the coffee table: the dining table. So much fun!
