Pop of Red

A neighbor gave me a small table with enamel top.  I painted the legs white, ordered red knobs for the drawer and am using it in my sewing room.

For some reason, it makes my little room look bigger; the table is now going to be my desk up there.   The knobs come in a bag of 5.  I looked at my kitchen and the worn out knobs there...
Added the red knobs to the cabinets and loved it so much that I ordered a few more bags for the kitchen.  I am loving how it turned out...because I have so many red accessories:




Yeh, it doesn't take much to thrill me but I am loving this pop of red in my house now!  Next little project might be to paint the tired beige tile to white.  I know my husband won't go for replacing the tile but I think the white would brighten up the kitchen.  What do you think?

Love the little table, and those knobs are perfect in your kitchen. I had no idea you could paint over tile!

I'll tell you in person, in May, what I think about painting the beige tiles white! WOOoooooooooohooooooooooooooooooo! :) I hope Brad is in the country (and in the state, and in the city!) when we come - every other time we've been by, he's been in far off lands!

That's a lovely pick me up. I honestly wouldn't paint the tile because it will be hard to keep clean and scratch free. However, try scrubbing it and it may just pop a little more given aging over time.

well honestly! I could move right in. I want an enamel table like yours especially in red and white. We had one in turquoise when I was a kid and I still remember it. The red knobs... where did you get them? I had the best ones, red hearts from IKEA but this year they started breaking and we had to change. So boring now. LeeAnna
