I recently had the opportunity to give my old entryway table a fresh new look by spray painting it and adding some new decorative pieces. I was excited to try out the Chalkboard Paint from Rust-Oleum, which I had previously used on other furniture pieces with great success.

Before starting the project, I made sure to take everything off of the table, including the hardware. I wanted to give the entire piece a thorough makeover, and that meant removing all of the old hardware. This was actually one of the easiest parts of the process, as I didn't have to worry about sanding or preparing the surface in any way. The spray paint can be used on just about anything, even if it's already been painted, so I was able to get started right away.

I began by painting the mirror first, and then moved on to the desk and finally the drawers. Each part of the process took a full day, but I didn't mind at all. The spray paint applied quickly and easily, and I was happy with the way it turned out from the very beginning. The satin ivory color is exactly what I had imagined, and I couldn't be more pleased.

I used the same technique for all three parts of the table - just spraying the paint on in stages, waiting for each coat to dry before moving on to the next one. This took a bit longer than I expected, but it was definitely worth it in the end. The drawers, in particular, took a full day to complete because they were the most complex part of the process.

I did have to use some patience and attention to detail when painting, as the color had to be just right. I didn't want any uneven spots or streaks, so I made sure to apply each coat carefully and let it dry completely before moving on. This took a bit longer than expected, but it was worth it in the end.

Once the paint was fully dry, I began reattaching the hardware. I had actually kept some of the original hardware, as well as new pieces that matched the style and color of the table. The hardware wasn't difficult to apply - just a simple matter of screwing them back into place. However, this was probably the easiest part of the entire process.

I also decided to add some decorative touches to the table, including a gorgeous mirror that I had actually previously hauled from the Home Goods store myself for just $12! I used painters tape to secure it to the back, as it's quite light and wouldn't hold its own against the weight of other decorations. If you're planning on hanging something over a mirror like this in the future, make sure to use a sturdier type of tape - perhaps duct tape or something similar.

I had all of my materials ready to go before starting the project, including the spray paint, new decorative pieces, and hardware. The total cost was around $20-$30, depending on how much of each piece I ended up using. In comparison, a brand new entryway table can easily cost upwards of $100 or more!

One thing that surprised me about this project is just how easy it was to get started. I had all of my materials ready and knew exactly what I wanted to do from the very beginning. The spray paint applied quickly and easily, and I was happy with the way it turned out from the very start.

Now that the table is complete, I'm excited to move on to decorating the rest of my entryway area. I've actually had all of these Decor pieces in different places throughout my old house because they work differently in my new house as you can tell so now I'm going to go ahead and hang up my mirror and finish putting everything together.

To decorate the table, I plan on adding a few more touches, including some topiaries that will sit on either side of it. This is something I've been wanting to do for a while now, but haven't had the chance yet. It's going to be a fun project, and I'm excited to see how everything comes together.

I hope you guys enjoyed my new entryway table makeover! I love how it turned out and couldn't believe I basically used the same exact products I had before gave it a face lift all I really did was buy spray paint a couple of new Decor pieces and that was it.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey hey hey hey hi guys so today I'm going to share with you how I have updated my entryway Decor now as most of you know I have moved into a new home and I've decided to kind of change my Decor up a little bit as you can see from the photos it kind of you kind of get like a Tuscany Vibe and now I'm going for more lighter cream colors and greens more like a French country I've been calling it that for quite some time and this is my idea of what French country looks like so I am using the same mirror as you can see it's black and I'm okay with that so I know I'm taking it from a dark color to a lighter color it took about a full day to spray paint it um and give it as many coats as possible to get rid of the black and as you can see here the first thing I'm doing is I'm taping it up I think this is Dollar Tree painters tape and I give it a couple of good layers before I lay down a foundation of newspaper this is just my process for spray painting something that's already been painted um you can sand it down all those things but I'm a little bit lazy and I didn't really care to sand it down it just takes quite a few additional coats to get the color that you want of course you can use a primer as well so here's the deal this isn't the first time that I've actually spray painted a mirror before and I made mistakes the last time so now I'm trying to really remember those mistakes so that I don't make them again so whenever I did my room makeover for the Black and Gold Room I spray painted that mirror if you remember and even though I thought I sealed it correctly and put down newspaper and everything you actually have to tape down all the sides of the newspaper even if you taped a lot underneath because when you're spray painting it creates air whenever you spray paint and that air will push the spray paint underneath the newspaper and you'll get spray paint Flex on the actual mirror so I think I've sealed it correctly now I'm going to wipe it down make sure there's no dog hair there's no dust or dirt and then I'm going to begin spray painting now that I've got my newspaper down I feel like it's all completely secured I'm going to go ahead and start spray painting it it does like I said take quite a few coats because we're going from so so dark to so light now that's not going to actually compromise the color that you choose in terms of spray paint and I'm taking you through my Walmart um experience where I'm trying to figure out which spray paint color I want I knew I wanted something like a classic Ivory cream and I was a little bit scared I was going to choose the wrong color but this satin Ivory was perfect now just keep in mind that paint comes in all kinds of like formats you can get glossy you can get matte you can get a satin finish and I believe I got a satin Ivory finish of course I ended up having to go back and I think buy two more cans because it does take so many coats and actually I was very surprised that this desk took more coats than the mirror and the reason why is if you can look at that gold the gold in this desk has almost a sheer or like a Sheen finish not a sheer a Sheen finish and let me tell you that was extremely hard to spray paint over it was like the spray paint didn't want to bind to the gold areas even though that that spray paint says that it can bind to anything wood already painted items it doesn't have to be sanded down and it did what it said it would do it just took a lot of coats to do it so this desk I think took a full day maybe a full day and a half I don't quite remember but I love the way that it turned out this satin ivory color was everything that I had like imagined it would be I did the spray painting in stages first I did the mirror which took a full day then the next day I did the desk and then the third day I did the drawers so the drawers as well took a full day because it doesn't matter really how much area you're working with because it only takes a couple minutes to apply one coat it wasn't that it was how many coats it actually took to get to that ivory color I needed so the drawers did take a full day and as you can see I took all the Hardware off of it first and I wasn't actually even changing the hardware I kept the hardware I do want to pull in bits and pieces of that bronzy black Iron Work I guess not bronzy but like iron type Hardware I don't know what to call it honestly so once I was complete with that I'm going to go ahead and start decorating in the entryway area all of this Decor I've actually had on hand it was in different places throughout my old house because it works differently in my new house as you can tell so now I'm going to go ahead and hang up my mirror and this is just a little trick that I use to make sure that I get my mirror even and so that I know that the nails are going to fit into the back of the picture frame um so I know I guess the distance you know between one hanger and the other I guess and so that's it so now I'm going to go ahead and put in the nails into the wall and of course I'm doing this all by my eye so one may be a little bit higher than the other but I do take a step back so that I can make sure that it looks really even across and okay so now the desk is in it looks great I love it putting that Hardware back on and honestly that was probably the easiest part was the hardware obviously cuz I didn't have to spray paint it or do anything to it now if you find that you want to redo your entryway table or any Decor that has Hardware like mine and your current Hardware doesn't match with what you're trying to go for Hobby Lobby sells the most beautiful knobs and hardware and for cheap too and make sure you go when that stuff is 50% off so the floor day lease that you see there the black ones I actually bought it Hobby Lobby myself um but the other ones actually came with the desk although they didn't used to be black I actually spray painted those black myself a while back now it's basically time to decorate the entryway table now I know we just put up the mirror and I took it back down but I wanted to make sure that I had my nails in and that it was going to fit before I put up a mirror with Decor on it so as you can see I'm basically just taking this gorgeous piece and if you watch my videos you might have seen me haul it from the home goods store I'll actually link that video at the end of this video so that you can um go check that out but I think it was like 12 bucks I don't remember what I paid for this with the Hy ranges on it but I'm loving it I think it looks so gorgeous there I didn't know I was going to do this it just came to me at the last minute and I'm really pleased with how it turned out so as you can see all I basically did was use painters tape again to secure it to the back and only because it's very light if you are going to hang something over a mirror like this like a wreath or something make sure it's not so heavy that painters tape can't handle it I would probably use a sturdier type of tape maybe duct tape or something along those lines but I had painters tape handy so I went ahead and used that instead and that is pretty much it for today's video I hope that you guys enjoyed my new entryway table makeover I love how it looks I can't believe I basically used the same exact products I had before gave it a face lift all I really did was buy spray paint a couple of new Decor pieces and that was it now I do still want to buy some topiaries to go on um either side of the table but that's going to be a later time and again I thank you so guys for watching this video and I'll see you soon for some more Di wise and planner videos of course and have a great week bye d he dhey hey hey hey hi guys so today I'm going to share with you how I have updated my entryway Decor now as most of you know I have moved into a new home and I've decided to kind of
