Script table

I have seen french writing on tables all over blog land and have wanted to try my hand at it... well my steady hand isn't so steady :) :)   so I ordered a stencil off etsy! easy peasy.. 

I first tried it out on my own coffee table, and first try i had some bleeding through the stencil, but after some windex and elbow grease and another go around.. it looks good, not GREAT but good!!  


Here it is

I do love it~   I centered it better on the next one :)

Here is was before, cute but needed a little something!






I couldn't help myself, so I ran out to the garage and grabbed another coffee table!

Here it is with the first coat of paint:

And Gorgeous after!!



Next I'm doing some dressers!! I cant wait for tomorrow! I'm going to be stenciling this on everything!!
