See You on the Flip Side

Much like Paul Schaffer, Silent Bob, Robin, and Garth, today’s makeovers are used to playing second banana.

Yes, just like a trusty sidekick, side tables have quietly and unassumingly been doing their jobs while letting the real stars of the room take center stage.  I mean, nobody ever designs a room around a little ol’ side table, right?

Well, not today!  Let’s get those supportive side tables out of the shadows and give them the ooh and ahhs they deserve.

 

Kellee brought this tired table back to life by removing that curtain-like fabric that I can practically smell through my screen (oh, you know it smells funky) and adding a new set of feet for a visual lift.  Such a great update!  See it at The Charmed Workshop.

Debbie’s side table is ready for her closeup now, draped in a gorgeous green that really shows off those legs.  *whoot-wooo!* <— (That was me attempting to type out a wolf whistle. Not as easy as I thought.)

So striking! Check it out at Painted Therapy.

Before, there wasn’t much to see here at all. But Amber changed that with a free-spirited design that lovingly incorporates this table into the whole room.  I’m loving that trompe l’oeil headboard too!  More to see at Frame Candy.

    They are all nice! But that first one is brilliant! Never woulda thought to remove the fabric and not replace it with anything. Gorgeous!

    Beautiful all of them, but that nightstand and trompe l’oeil headboard are the best!! I love the design on the nightstand. It’s stunning!!

    Me, 4 for the first one.
    Wanted to find the source and actually read the information but can’t find it. I’ve searched google for everything I can find but no luck. Any suggestions? Maybe you have the entire URL?
    Thanks.
