(before)

I saw her at a garage sale this weekend. Solid wood, heavy as heck… just a little abused and ignored.

I asked “how much?” and the lady said, “oh I don’t know…. maybe $3”. Ummmmm yeah…. I think I can cough that up.

I ran out of there carrying the end table on my back before she could change her mind!

I was so excited, I finished her the next day. Here she is in all of her new glory:

(after)

I brought her into Ava’s room to photo for Craigslist.


Darn it Shauna! It does look stinkin‘ cute and I do want to keep it!!!!!


Keep it? Sell it? Keep it? Sell it? Oh the decisions I gotta make!

    if it were mine, I’d sell it. Because this pink makes me crave delicious pink cupcakes with thick pink frosting and I’d probably end up eating cupcakes everyday! ๐Ÿ˜€

  10. Angie says:
    April 27, 2010 at 10:10 pm

    What a find. (Put a crazy high price on it and if it doesn’t sell….oh well.)

  22. Kolein says:
    April 28, 2010 at 3:26 am

    I thought you had bought and painted it white! I fell in love with it and then I toppled over in love with it in pink! If you’ve got a space for it, keep the sweetie! If not, move it on out!!

    You’re amazing! Have I told you that before?

  23. Pat says:
    April 28, 2010 at 4:57 am

    that is gorgeous, I love the colour of the top photo, is that the true colour? It looks like a lovely melon pink. I have a question, wondering if you could answer it as I am still quite new to all this…if I get a comment on my blog, I always reply to that comment by posting a comment on my own blog. I have a sneaking suspicion that is not the right way to do it…should I just email the commenter directly? thanks for your advice ๐Ÿ™‚

  25. Laura Lofgreen says:

    I am partial to pink. It is so cute, I’d keep it.

  26. Pamela says:
    April 28, 2010 at 12:42 pm

    Sooo KEEP that one!! Wishing I lived near by! You would have to report me as a craigs list stalker. Loving all your projects!

  27. TOTEally Posh! says:
    April 28, 2010 at 8:04 pm

    $3!!!!! Wow! Don’t you just love finding solid wood pieces to redo? I love it. So perfect for a little girl’s room.

  28. Jan @ bobbypins boardwalk says:
    April 29, 2010 at 7:36 am

    I love it and would have a hard time selling it. We can basically say it was “free”. I’d keep it until you find another great steal that looks just a great!

  29. Al says:
    April 29, 2010 at 12:45 pm

    Keep it! nah, sell it, nah keep it – its a win win situation.

  30. Lisa says:

  31. Charity says:

  32. Polly C says:

    I found something similar at a thrift store as well! If I had a little girl I would have gone for pink but I went for more of a neutral makeover. Check it out!

    Oh, how I love this post! I found two identical endtables at a junk shop — solid wood, $25 for the two of them — and painted mine an aqua blue. They’re the exact table that you have! We could have triplets!

    Wanna see?

    I wish I found that kind of quality and price at sales around here! Out of curiosity, how much would you ask for it on CL? It’s very adorable – you have quite the dilemma!

  48. Sunshine and Shadows says:
    June 18, 2010 at 4:01 am

    Did you spray paint is Sweet Pea by Rustoleum? I have that color to use in an upcoming project and am hopeful after seeing this gorgeous update. Could you let me know how you painted it?

    How adorable…I absolutely love it! White is my absolute fave, but you really did something magical on this piece. Please don’t sell on Craigslist! Try something else like…My Blue Sofa
