Our First Month

It's been an exciting first month here at Galeria CTR. We've been getting our name out there and working on adding to our inventory. Starting this month we will have a beautiful line of imported glass giftware by Odyssey Imports in store, so look forward to that.
I've been up to my elbows in up-cylcing projects. I wanted to share of few of them with you today.
We have been scouring garage sales, estate sales, and thrifting like mad to find little gems that need some TLC.

Let me show you the latest...



This Salvation Army Find needed some personality.
TA DA. I had a memory game of Charley Harper prints that fit perfectly. 
Here's the side view. A coat of epoxy and this little coffee table is ready. $99.99
Two tables with damaged tops. First we sanded. 


This little side table needed a modern update. First I added the primer.
Then I painted the top with a green glaze. Once the glaze was dry I added dark stain to let the wood grain show through. 
I decided this one needed a coat of color because the top had a large water stain.  So first the primer. Then a nice blue. 
Here's the round topped table updated with a coat of ocean blue paint. 
Two coats of paint, poly-crylic, and wax later. Color block blue gate-leg $79.99
All finished. $39.99
