Sofa table, need your thoughts and opinions!

It has been just shy (like 3 weeks) of us being in this house for three years.  I am JUST starting to want to do some projects.  I'm not sure if it was the trauma of moving, kids, homeschooling, horses or the million other things.  But for awhile I had ZERO ambition to do anything around here besides cook and clean.  

Well, the creative juices are flowing and I'm ready to tackle a few small projects.  I even have a bigger one in mind, but that is whole other blog post! ;)  And while writing this I am remembering that I have never shown you the mudroom cabinets...... which I painted in Annie Sloan Emperor's silk.  Uh oh, my bad!!   Will show that soon too :)

You might remember when I first posted our family/great room, I had this smaller sofa table in here.  For the simple reason I had nothing else.  And actually as I look at this picture, things have changed, LOL!


About a year ago I moved the original one in our master bedroom and found the current one on Craigslist.  It's a Thomasville table I got for a great price.  But it was much longer and narrow, which were the specs I needed most!     I would like to paint this table with Annie Sloan chalk paint.  Which color, or colors do you think I should do?  I have so many that I'm embarrassed to name them! Colors in the room are tannish gold, green, red, turquoise, and some black accents.  The walls are Sherwin Williams Ivorie.   If you need a refresher of the room you can see the Family room here.     Anyway, here is the table......   


 
 As you can see, I have already played with the knobs.  I added the crystal knobs,  but two weeks ago I found mercury glass knobs at Homegoods which I thought were adorable.  You can vote on those too! ;)       Thank you and hope to hear from you!
 
XOXO

Pretty piece Kristi...I would go with a green. Either Chateau Grey or Versailes. I've love both of them!! Check out my last post...I just redid an antique chest in Versailes...Chateau Grey is a little bit of a darker green. Can't wait to see what you decide and I can't wait to see your mudroom!!

I still haven't tried to paint anything with MMS or AS. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Actually I love it the way it is, so I am no help at all:) Sorry!!!! Will be anxious to see what you do though.

Hmmmm.....I had to go look at your pics of the family room tour to get an over all feel of the room. My vote is for a deep red. Have I told you how much I LOVE your Bosporus toile table cloth lately? *sigh* Still love it :o)

I actually loved the sofa table you had before lol. Since our living room colors and fabrics are pretty much the same and looking at your previous pictures from the family room I'd paint it chateau grey. I have our tv on a dresser I painted in chateau grey and I think it works well with the colors in the room.
So happy to see you back blogging...maybe I'll join you soon lol
