With the arrival of the new year, Lisa and I have begun our final push to get ready for the upcoming antique extravaganza. I just finished this project and I am so pleased with the outcome, I had to take some time to share it with you.
The little side-table started life as a primitive wooden apple crate. When I found this little treasure, the paper label had mostly peeled away, but what was left of it was lovely; and pink paint, flaking from the wood inside and out, had mellowed to a wonderfully soft hue.
I gently scrubbed away the years of dust and grime, careful not to destroy anymore of the label and to remove only the flakiest paint. Then I added, (well hubby added), caster wheels, a wooden shelf with old green paint and finally an overall coat of poly.
Isn’t it adorable!
