Well the last couple weeks have been very busy, but I promise I've still been cooking, quilting, and DIY-ing. Today's adventure was to make over a happy little side table I got at the Harper's Ferry Flea Market. Remember in my post about the copycat Pottery Barn candle holders, when I showed off the batch of goodies my husband and I got for $25? Well this is the side table from that haul.
I liked the shape, and it's a great little size to sit next to the couch and hold a drink while I'm watching TV. It was wobbly and just needed to be reassembled with some wood glue, really. I also wanted to sand it down and give it a nice coat of navy blue paint so it could be a happy, well adjusted member of my living room furniture family.
See? What a nice size.

Disassembled.
Sanded!
Primed. I used the Zinsser primer again- the one I used on the dresser makeover.
Painted!
The after picture. Ooo. Aaa.
Just used basic craft paint for the table, and wood glue in each joint when I reassembled.
Fin!
