A Waterfront Home on the Thames? Yes, Please!

I was recently browsing the real estate listings of Savills, the well known real estate agency in England.  I found myself dreaming of owning a home right on the Thames. Take a look at my three favorites and tell me what you think!

The second property is called Hampton Court East in Molesey, Surrey.  This one reminds me of Mr. Darcy's estate - I would feel just like Elizabeth Bennett living here:

Lastly, I'm drooling over Goring-on-Thames, in  Oxforshire, with its indoor pool and tennis courts:

$19 Table Makeovers with Spray Paint and Rub 'n Buff

I used to have a long console table behind my sofa, but when we put a big tv over the fireplace, we needed to move the sofa back.

Of course I never took a before photo - here is the best I have:

The problem - they were bright red.  Not my thing.

So, I sprayed them black and they lived happily for a while.  But then I remembered what a little tube of Rub 'n Buff can do.

I spent 5 minutes and $3 today, and here are my "new" end tables:

I can see I missed a little at the bottom:

But I love how they go with the table in the background:
