Antique Mall Table

Before

I came across this cute table recently at a local antique mall. The price was $16 and it was in good condition. I loved the lines of this table and the tall height would make it a great bedside table in my Other Guest Bedroom that you can see here.

I saw the potential in this as a painted piece. So I sanded and primed it. I painted it with two coats of white latex paint. Then the fun part...I sponged on blue and white across the top. I wanted this part very subtle and barely have the blue noticeable. I painted black stripes on the skirting and black silhouettes of branches and birds on the top, all freehand. There is a small blue design that I painted on the lower triangle part. You can click on each picture to enlarge. Then click again and the picture will get even larger so you can see the detail.
