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!

I’ll post some other colors soon.)

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!

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
