Kathy, The kids table looks perfect in the space, you got the colors just right! Our sofa had the same issue and I made some cushions to replace the overstuffed ones, they’ve made such a huge difference! It’s way more comfortable now and has a much slimmer look that I prefer. Your update is so easy and totally plays up your chandelier and the coastal vibe you have going in the room! Griffin
You did an awesome job with it! Where did you get the set? I saw IKEA. I am so bummed there is not a store near me. Please tell me you can get this online! 🙂
I love this. I am curious – how has this held up over time? I clean that same Ikea table daily from all of the use. Does it wipe clean just the same? I like the idea of the chalkboard top – I may need to make that happen. Thanks for the idea!
Hi Erin! I was able to wipe clean with chalkboard top but I would suggest a coat of primer. One stool I painted with left over enamel paint and it did great. The other chair was painted with interior latex and it chipped some. Great timing for a follow up!
Great…thanks for the follow up! I’m going to look into the primer and enamel paint for ours. I’m just about the start the process of turning a bland office into a playroom. 🙂

Thanks so much Griffin. So far we love the cushions. I might have to make slip covers out of upholstery fabric to make them more “permanent.”
Looks great! I think the design of the furniture says fun and the colors gives it style.
Thanks Cathy!
That is an incredible transformation! I had no ideas that you could paint those bright Ikea chairs and tables. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Thank you Emily. I’m a firm believer in that you can paint ANYTHING! lol 😉 Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Kathy how incredible is this?! I will forever be only of your blogging groupies 🙂 You have the MOST GORGEOUS decorating in your home 🙂
That’s so sweet and funny Nancy! I love that I have a groupie!!
This look so much better Kathy! Great color choices.
Thanks Carmody! It’s much better. lol
Where are the curtains from in that room? Looking for something similar. Thanks!
Hi Kat! Those curtains are actually fabric purchased from fabricusa.com and handmade. I saw some similar patterns at Hobby Lobby recently. 🙂

We got it at the Woodbridge IKEA. We don’t have one close by but when we travel, I usually run in for a few things! 😉
