My Makeover with Para Paints

para paintsI’ll be honest when I say that I rarely stray away from my beloved Benjamin Moore paints. They have been pretty tried and true through all of our flips, DIY’s and design projects. But after meeting the lovely folks behind Para Paints at Blogpodium and getting spoiled with a complimentary can of paint to try, how can a girl say no?? I have had a console table in our house now for about 4 years. I bought it when I was going through my rustic phase and, since my design style is ever evolving, it was in desperate need of a revamp.

I only added a few items, trying to keep it monochromatic and simple. A typography print, lamp and a couple books add just the right amount of styling touches.

So what do you think of my revitalized console table? It is definitely going to be accompanying me over to the flip, to stage the living room, so be prepared to see it again! Hopefully, with all that moving around, it will stay in good condition!
