An Oops Makeover

Just a quick ( boring ) post ( because I have to get ready for a corn roast that we've been invited to!!! )

Remember this little table that I picked up for 10.00? ( you can read post HERE )




I looked at this and HATED it - look at my poor little white stripes ( all I can say about this is I was exhausted when I was working on it - a dangerous thing obviously lol )  there was nothing to do except sand the entire top down and start over - in an entirely different direction.......................
but something magical happened in the sanding process - and I ended up stopping when I realized it was exactly how ( I thought ) it was meant to look from the beginning!




I painted out the body of the table in white to contrast the drawer and the bottom shelf -







Except for possibly a little distressing on the legs, it's DONE - on to bigger and better things ( which I'll only work on with the proper amount of sleep!
