My $1 Coffee Table - and I didn't even paint it!

I'm having a major blogger's block tonight.  Too much painting today, or sun, or something.  WHOA, too much SUN?!  I couldn't have said that.  It's only March 14th.  Ohhhhh but we were in shorts today, and I was going to town with the circular saw, jig saw, toy saw, and the mosquitoes were biting and it was just so marvelous and I'm pooped.....   So I've had this waiting the shadows for almost a YEAR now.  But tonight's the night I'm going to show you the bargain of the year.  Well, Maybe  of that month.   I get a lot of bargains.  But this was def a top one.  It was one of those drive-by garage sales I've told you about.  I was with my mom who insisted we DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO STOP AT THE GARAGE SALES!  So I said, well we'll just drive by and I'll shout out the window if I see something.  Sure enough, there it was.  HOW MUCH?!!!!  I hollered.  ONE DOLLAR was the reply.  Mom, I don't care what you say, this baby is getting put in park!!!  Are you ready?  Here it is.  And I didn't have to do a blame thing to it!!!
Pin It
This just might be the only piece of furniture I've bought used and not decided to give a facelift to!  Yes, I like my rug too.  No, I didn't find that at a garage sale. Sadly.  It actually cost some money.
