new/old coffee table

I've added a new piece of furniture to my ever growing collection...

This one's a keeper, at least for now.

So wanna see????





Okay, here she is:




and before she looked like that, she looked like this:




I think it's an improvement.

I roughed up the piece and then used milk paint in snow white on the body. I heavily distressed it as well.  The jury is out on the top. I will either refinish it nicely or maintain a worn effect. I removed the drawer pull and have decided I like the piece better without anything so, yes, I know I have to fill the drawer holes.

*** THANKS so much to GAIL at MY REPURPOSED LIFE for featuring THIS dresser****

Awesome project I really like. Thanks for the sharing. People want to have beautiful furniture in their homes. They also went for that furniture to be sturdy. Many people want to have wood coffee tables, but the problem is affording highest quality furniture. to get beautiful and sturdy wood furniture, you can end up paying a lot of money. But, if you are a good do-it-yourself person, you can make your own tables. All you need is coffee tables design plans
