This one dated October, 1969.
I have lost count of how many I have painted.
They are all male.
This one is a clean slate kind of guy.
He was hit by the dreaded overspray.
No worries.
He had to be sanded anyway.
I always paint them in a light or white color.
No more hiding places.
No, the color did not change.
The sunlight did.
Look closely at the two on the left compared with the one on the right.
Repeated all the way around.
Just a little.
No creepy crawlies!
Available in Booth C-23 at Riverfront Antique Mall.
THE BIG REVEAL: AUGUST 29th AT 4PM EASTERN
(HERE) had an idea to ask a few blogging buddies to participate in a fun adventure.
We were to thrift shop, gift the goodies to a blogger Tania selected, and then do a makeover or two on the items.

I would love to find a table like this. I would leave the door off, paint the inside something fantastic and put a coordinating pillow inside for one of the cats! They would love it!
ReplyDeleteRush - officially one great idea for these tables - a cat hang-out! Next time I find one, I doing one for our cats.
DeleteThose tables are ugly in their original state but you manage to make them nice and usable! I love rush's idea of a cat place! Looking forward to your reveal on the 29th.
ReplyDeleteAgain what a great painting job! Slate is a great color!

I usually hate these tables because of their bulk, but they look so pretty when you get finished with them and don't seem to look as large. I really do like the shading...it gave it a little extra depth....looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful re love. Love the color.
ReplyDeleteKris
Love the color and I like that you say they are all male!
ReplyDeleteThe table turned out great! Now I'm going to have to find me one (or 4) to make into cat hideouts for our kitties like Rush suggested. I don't think they're like to share.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe those bulky, heavy end tables are back in style, but it is talented people like you Donna that is making them pretty and useful again. Love the slate color and how you shaded the side panels. They are great for storage or as Rush says ... for a cat bed sounds great.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing what a difference a paint job will make!
ReplyDeleteHi Donna, The paint job made a huge impact on the little table...spruced him right up! Looks great...love the color! Thanks so much for visiting me, and for the kind comment! Pretty excited to be following you... looks like we have lots in common! :) ~Rhonda

ReplyDeleteHi Donna! I love it! What a great transformation! My MIL has some of those in storage that I think I need to makeover!! Thank you for the inspiration!! Hope the rest of your week is filled with joy!

Oh, white flowers on a dark table: perfection!
ReplyDeleteI like the slate kind of guy! It turned out great. Good idea to paint the insides lighter.
ReplyDeleteThe guy is pretty handsome in his new shade of grey! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
