Greek Key Night Stands

Today's quote:  Neutral doesn't have to mean boring.

Every since I went with a more neutral color scheme in the master bedroom, I felt that it lacked any pizazz.  Know what I mean?  In order to get neutral right - at least in my little opinion - you need layers of texture and contrast..

When I started these changes, I knew it would be a process.  One that would evolve over time with ideas coming to me gradually.  Once the pillows were added, the night stands called for a new color.

I went with SW urban bronze for the color, but felt they needed something more.

My blogging friend and Weim lover, Rebecca from the blog GibbGabb, recently did a great makeover on her tables giving me the inspiration for my project.

Finding a Greek Key pattern that I liked was easy after reading this post.  I began taping and re-taping until the pattern looked the OK.

After two coats of white semi-gloss and removing the tape, the best part by far, this is the result.
