The coffee table lives on

My endeavor of transforming my bedroom to the old Hollywood Glamour is still a work in progress as I have finally finished working on a corner of my room. It is a corner that I was not unhappy with, but it was to shabby chic nostalgic for the room to really emphasize the old glamour I'm trying to achieve. So,with that in mind, I took the coffee table top from the same table that I cut and used on my bed previously and transformed it as well. The same friend who gave me the table had also given me a full length mirror, so I used them both to make a glamorous corner. After browsing hundreds of internet pictures of Hollywood starlets of the old days, I noticed that their dressing areas and dress shop areas had these fabulous tufted sides added to a huge mirror all of which sat on top of steps. Keeping this in mind and on a much, much smaller scale, I duplicated the look.

Because the location of my now dressed corner, it was slightly challenging to get a decent full picture, but I think you get the idea, 'cause you be smart that way!

I inherited my Mothers first vanity and dresser she had after my parents married so the new / old mirror is in the corner of the two pieces of furniture. 

Directly over the top of this new glamour is my sweet chandelier. 

I added some detail to the sides and the "mirror frame" to mimic the idea of old Hollywood as I saw the same wood carved details in their furniture. Oh yeah, the padded sides are actually covering two old chippy paint shutters I had set up in the same manner in the "before" transformation. Sorry, I was so anxious to get this project going, I forgot the "before" pictures!

It's not complete, as you know I'll keep tinkering with this little project to get it just right. But for now, here it is, coffee table turns old Hollywood Glamour mirror. So, what do you think D'haling?
