I got on the chevron train

If you spend any time browsing DIY decorator blogs you have noticed the chevron stripe trend. I love chevron stripes and knew I had to have them somewhere in my house. Here is how I made that happen.

I started with a very old and free magazine side table. (Thanks Westcotts)

I painted it grey just like my dining room table.

I printed a free chevron stripe template that I found online. Following a bloggers advice, I hammered little tiny holes along the template. This worked great. It kept the template in place and making the process of taping pretty easy. I removed the template and there were tiny little holes to line the tape up with.

Taping took a long time!

Two coats of paint later and a few little touch ups... TAA DAA!
It makes me smile!
