OK, this was a Goodwill score at $4…I bought it initially for my son’s new apartment. He moved out a week ago and I thought since his new place was partially furnished that this would be a good addition.
It looks like it was a shop project…very sturdy, but the top is plywood and the edges had some gouges so I had to paint it. I used wood filler and went over it several times with a sealer as there were some stains on the top.
I used a cocoa paint left over from another project and slathered on several coats to help cover any imperfections. I wasn’t happy with that so I painted the top white…
and I painted two stripes around the bottom using spray paint and tape.
It’s not perfect but neither was the table!
Anyway, I have decided to keep this table for my spare bedroom (aka my son’s room). I will need a bedside table so decided to keep this table for that room.
I am glad to have it done and I do like the way it looks.
I am linking to these great parties!
I really like how you made over this table! You did a great job, and the stripes are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteVery nice job! The stripes really personalized it!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful! I wouldn't mind having that in my little nook to sit at.
ReplyDeleteIt's really cute and I love the colors! I wish I would score a $4 table to copy your project! Julia
ReplyDeleteThe white stripes at the bottom really add something to the table. I love it new follower
