Our old Pier1 was a place I could spend hours. It had that mix of incense and rope that greeted you when you wanted in the door. The floors squeaked and it had a second story loft that was the big furniture department. You could pick your basic white plates from the racks in the back right next to the bins of sea shells and brass bells. I could spend hours there and I think I still have a bunch of things from that store. Same here! Used to love exploring. It was a hippie haven. Remember the carved wooden boxes from India? Perfect for rolling papers and a nickel bag. ;) And the leather water buffalo sandals from India. Loved those! Some of my favorite dresses came from Pier 1. Hey Jen, I don't know how many times I've seen you post about the poor quality of your phone pics. Why not treat yourself to a new camera to go with the new house? ;)

I'd grab that table. It would be easy to change to brass. I honestly don't feel you could mess it up. Get a spray primer for metal. Rustoleum or Krylon would be fine. Rust-oleum American Accents bright metallics spray paint in Gold. I think that looks pretty good on it's own, but I would also use Rub N Buff in Antique Gold. I've did a layering technique on a mini chandelier with Rust-oleum Metallic in Antique Brass Metallic and added some Rub N Buff in the Antique Gold. I've also used straight up Antique Gold Rub N Buff, but think the spray paint first would be easier. ETA This bird was brown and blue and I used the Rust-oleum American Accents bright metallics in Gold after primer. I think this would look good by itself though I still might use the A.gold Rub N Buff for a little more dimension. The mini chandelier is in the attic and I couldn't find it. The R. in Antique Brass Metallic is a little more bronze in color and you'd have to definitely do some layering with at least the Rub N Buff, IMO. Here's Antique Gold Rub N Buff I used on the corners of picture frames. I also ran a tiny bit along the edges. It can be uneven on wider surfaces as you can see here. I could have blended it better, but I taped off and did this quick and was fine with how it looked for this space. It doesn't look like crap unless you make a point to stare and compare close up. I did a search a long time ago where a blogger compared three different brass paints. They all looked good, but the best one, I believe Kryon, was in a small can I couldn't find anywhere locally. My3dogs - Just looked at your link. I agree their lamp looks really great! I was mainly trying to show the colors, but that also shows how you can rub and blend the Rub N Buff out so it's not streaky. Now I'm sitting here wondering what I can give a makeover!!

Also, I can’t really push back my couch considering it’s floating because of the front door :/
