Remember this table from last week? You can read about the transformation process here: https://missmustardseed.com/2009/09/this-table-deserves-better/ I finally finished it yesterday! This poor little table had a horrible paint job that did not do it justice and this is what it looks like now. (And in case you’re wondering…no, I do not paint everything in blues & aquas! I’ll post some other colors soon.)

I typically post my previews a few days ahead of an original art sale, but May has been so busy that this sale snuck up
Before I share my Lucketts recap, I wanted to let you know my next original art sale is Wednesday, May 20, 20206, at 1:00 pm Eastern. For those interested in early access at noon, you can sign up HERE. On Thursday night, we packed our van with oil painting supplies,
I’ve reached that tipping point in my life where I feel like I probably have enough stuff. No doubt, I passed that point years ago, but hunting for antiques and just the right piece for my house is still so much fun! I have noticed I walk out of more

GOOOORGEOUS!!! Awesome job! That little table`s got a new lease on life, LOL!!
(PS- side note… it would be easier to leave you comments if you had a pop-up instead! I have to do 3 steps (4 if I'm not logged in) to leave you a comment! 🙂 I changed mine to that recently after realizing how long it could take! 😉 )
I figured it out and changed it to a pop-up window. I agree that it is much easier, so thanks for the tip!
I love the little detail on the side! The paint effect is subtle, but beautiful. Great job 🙂
Love the detail…makes all the difference
Wow…really beautiful! Love your work! I'll be in touch regarding that oaky kitchen I gotta paint!

This came out beautiful///now it looks glamorous. However, I hate to admit it….I liked the before too. However the before would be a hard piece to place along with anything in most rooms!
I think she is the cutest lil table ever!!
SOOO much better. I love the added touch of the green on the legs. Georgeous!

Very cute. I love the pop of color!
Love your painted furniture! That blue/green teal is one of my favorite colors (though I don't have much if it around my house, go figure….)! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Come by again, I have more on the way! =)
I love the table blue – I also think using a blue wash adds character to the table. Kim W
