Country Chic with White Distressed End Tables

One of my favorite benefits of white distressed end tables is that they evoke a sense of warm country living. They remind me of my grandmother’s house and her cooking, a little bit wear, and lots of love. This is a common sentiment. Many people experienced white distressed furniture first in their grandparent’s homes. The furniture that developed a rich patina from daily use and while clean never looked so clean that you would be afraid to set your drink down on the coaster. If your grandparent’s house was anything like my grandparent’s house, there were some tables the kids were not allowed near such as those in the formal living room and other tables just for us such as the ones in the den.

Because the tables were in the Den, they got a little bit of rough play from us kids. When I was smaller I could perch in between the drawer of the table and the foot shelf. Eventually my brothers figured out my favorite hiding spot, but those white distressed end tables were perfect for me!  They were also perfect for the use. Being distressed, the tables resisted our sticky handprints and resisted showing the extra wear and tear we added with each visit. They were perfect a bit of rough play from kids. Because they were in constant use and the wood had been treated to patina overtime instead of dry out, the tables stayed strong. My brother now enjoys them with his children.

White distressed end tables are perfect for adding just a touch of that lazy summer country day without competing with or changing the feel of your current furniture arrangement. The color white blends with almost every décor, and the distressing enhances the warmth of the object which answers the most common complaint against white tables as being too austere. The white lends the feeling of renewal much like the action of sitting under a weeping willow, hiding under the sweeping fronds.

A pair of white distressed end tables can take a modern room and tone it down just enough that your visitors feel comfortable. Many modern furnishings leave the regular person grasping for similarities. A white distressed piece will bridge that gap without detracting from your décor. The mixing of pieces will also help you create a unique home and living area.

A white distressed end table is picture perfect with some blooming daisies. The best part is you can pick the daisies or purchase even at your grocery store and enjoy for often a month before they need to be thrown away. Choose a medium globe vase and a round end table, find a black and white photo and the color of the daisies will add extraordinary vibrancy to your room.

White distressed end tables represent a functional, sweet addition to your home. With the significance of renewal, the richness of a patina, the white distressing can change your mood and bring you a piece of summer all year long.
