Junk find becomes cool coffee table

P186 P188 P190
I'm so chuffed, I found this wee table at second-hand shop the Box Room in Banchory yesterday for £5 and a day later it's already brightened up my living room - and my life!


I painted its legs with Annie Sloan chalk paint in Duck egg blue (oh my goodness, another brilliant discovery! Go google it and get some, it's the best paint ever if you're into painting old furniture and distressing it). I then put some wax on it and lightly sanded it back to get a worn look. I just tried it out in the lounge and guess what, it's a perfect compagnon for my other recent find: the 1950s chair. We've got a winner here!
