Finished!

Well, I'm posting this a bit later than I had intended. Truthfully, the table has been finished for a couple weeks now. It was the surroundings for the photo that weren't... Anyway, I've been working really hard to get the apartment ready for the holidays and apparently it's down to the last minute. All the relatives will be arriving tomorrow evening!

Here is the side table installed in my sewing room the guest room:


A chronicle of my process:

As purchased, dirty and stained.
Sanded and primed.


Even the back.














Epilogue:
In January, I plan to reconfigure our furniture again.

The futon will return to the living room while the large (ugly) dining table will be moved to the sewing room since it is the best available surface to sew large items on. (You can expect to see my first attempts at quilting!)

And this lovely little side table will be moved into my room. I can't wait to snuggle under my blankets with a cup of tea and a good book!

  1. I must say you are a girl after my own heart! This little table re-do reminds me of one I did a few years back. Great Job. It take tons of work to make something tattered into something fabulous.
