A purple table?

[Winchester]

Yes or no?

I have the remainder of the gallon of Sonic Plum paint that was used on the shed door. And started thinking, which Dear Richard says can sometimes be quite dangerous.

We're going to an unfinished furniture store to look for a small table (2 chairs) for the shed. Why unfinished? Because I want to paint the table purple. Sonic Plum, actually. Not the chairs; I'm thinking of just painting the chairs white or grey. Rick is trying to talk me out of it, saying that it's too much, with the door and the walls. But all the molding and trim are white. The bookcases are white.

I googled purple table and saw some "interesting" tables.

Thoughts?

I would go for the plum, there are enough other colours to balance it out. When is the shed warming party, you havent said.

Are you talking about more of a breakfast table size? If yes I say go for it. If it's bigger, it could get overwhelming. You probably will need to have purple not be the main color in the rug, but an accent color if you go with the purple table. My

Go for it. It's a SHE shed. Not a HE shed. Tell him that you and Molli vote YES and he's outvoted.

You could always do just the table legs. The great thing about paint is; if you hate it you can redo it!

It's your she shed. Paint and decorate it as you like. I like the idea of a purple table. I think white or gray accents would be good. Go for it!

If you paint it and hate it, it can be painted over. I'd go for it

Just a suggestion...
What if you painted the legs purple, the table top white, and did a stenciled filigree / vine type design around the table top in the purple. You could try to find a stencil that mimics the same pattern of the chandelier. Here is what I mean about a stenciled top. You could also paint it purple and do the stencil in white.

Wow. I really like Jem 's idea. You know me, I'd go for purple table, turquoise chairs and cat and butterfly stencils over everything. I'm currently scouring junk shops for an old wooden ladder that I can paint and turn into a cat tree.



Like this, but for the cats rather than for ornaments.

Jem I love your idea! Unfortunately, I am so graphics-challenged that I can already see a huge mess. Thanks!
Norachan that would truly make an awesome cat tree!
AbbysMom This would be a smaller table with room for only two chairs. I'm not looking for a regular kitchen or dining room table. Just big enough to nestle at the front double window. Nothing huge.

Thanks guys! We're going up today to look at unfinished furniture.

Well, that didn't work out. We got there and they were closed for a funeral. We'll try again next weekend.

However, I did order Roman shades for the shed; they should come in around the beginning of December or so. We like our bathroom Roman shade so much that I decided to order the shed shades in the same design and color.
