While we’re on the topic of … of … of … word has totally slipped my mind. Refurbishing? Reinventing? Making something different out of something? You know? ?? ???
Ok, I just consulted thesaurus.com and everything. I know there is a word for it. I really can’t think of it. Gah.
Anyway, this old table used to be a coffee table, but Bette got her hands on it and now it’s a console table! Tada! Pretty brilliant, I think. She simply had Home Depot cut a piece of wood sized to fit, glued it to the original legs and added another set of legs. She makes it look easy!
Check it out on her blog Frugal Mom x 3. Thanks Bette!
