Here are a trio of tables that all looked remarkably the same, in their sad, neglected ‘before’ states. However, they couldn’t be more different as ‘afters.’
The first makeover comes from Marian at Mustard Seed Creations. (Good gravy I love her blog! Everything she does is astounding!) Check out her chalkboard table tutorial HERE.
I love the second table as well, a completely different look! Lisa from Recaptured Charm repainted this table robin’s egg blue, then gave it an extra touch of personality with fun fabric and a glass top.
And the last table was rescued by Kendra at My Insanity. I’m loving the two toned look. I don’t know how she managed to get that nasty broke-down wood to look so good, but dang, it looks good!

September 29, 2009 at 3:04 AMThey are all lovely. Tables are fun to do because they are (mostly) easy and you can make them your own.
Now I have some new inspiration!

September 29, 2009 at 1:23 AMThanks for the comment! 🙂 It’s cooled off to 94 degrees here at 6:20pm, so I hear ya on the not wanting to do hair when it’s hot!! Those are the days (months… years…) that call for quick and cute ponytails!
Love the tables – I have got to go see how she did that first one with the pretty white border to the chalkboard paint!
