It only had three of the eight little spindles at the bottom. It was lightweight and cheap looking, dusty, and priced a little too high for my standards. (Dust, ha, as if a little dust ever scared me!) Then the Jackson Resale Factory came through again. He saw me staring at it, and sighing.... and dropped the price so low I couldn't say no. |
I wasn't sure what I was going to do about this until I screwed it all apart.... |
laid the pieces out......... |
and flipped that bad boy with all the holes over. Wa la, nobody need ever know there were spindles in there! |
It got a good coat of Bull's Eye primer (my new favorite) and then two coats of dark gray, ending with..... |
a lovely white stencil on each side. Man, I'm loving the dramatic before and after. And wow, that sure sounded like a good pattin' myself on the back. |
i love this! i'm glad i found you...i love what you have done...
ReplyDeleteWow, love what you did to this table. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeletewhat a great save! it looks so cute and you would never know the spindles are missing! :) love that!
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat koinkydink, I just realized that you and I have that same stencil. I love what you do with all of your furniture. I wish I could be that creative. I just stencil silly things like cardboard castles and kids' toys. I bet my house would look so much cuter if I were as creative with my furniture as you. Keep up the great work!
