Lodge Podge

Candace needed something to replace the empty spot of nothing in front of her sofa. So she found this old coffee table and decided to give it a full-blown makeover!  But then, when her arms could take no more sanding, she decided to give it a half-blown makeover! She simply painted the top and hand-traced the deer design to resemble a rustic old lodge sign instead.  Pretty cool.  See more plus a tutorial on her site Frugal Mom.

What’s that?  You want more yummy table goodness?  Well, I aim to please.  Here is a beautiful nightstand redo from Helen who has the shabby chic technique down to a science.  She could write the book about it! In fact, she IS writing a book about it: The Science of Shabby Chic. Ok, I’m making all that up, but it is a catchy name. Someone should get on that.

Check it out on her blog Picked and Painted.
