Decorative Painting Not So Pretty

I found this when I scored the big haul at the flea market a few weeks back. It was loaded w/ white paint and embellished w/ a poor attempt at decorative painting. It got a good stripping w/ Citrastrip which BTW was a huge pain in the ass you know what.

The top had the same pretty floral motif as the shelf. The legs were adorned w/ this garland like thingie.
After the big boring somewhat therapeutic stripping....I stained the top w/ Minwax Dark Walnut, painted it w/ a pretty blue oops paint, distressed and used the stain again on the distressed areas. Ahhhh much better!
