We bought this table several years ago at the flea market for about 10 dollars. It doesn’t match any of our furniture. Not to mention the fact that it is made from press board with a shiny coating of polyurethane. I’m totally not into shiny furniture. But we needed a place for my alarm clock to live and this table was available. So it was put to work.
I designed a new pattern called the Queen of Hearts recently, and decided to give this little table a new look.

Our little table before I began. In dire need of a personality!
I designed the pattern. You can find the pattern available through the website link on this post.
Adding in the colors with acrylic paint.
This is a look at the finished top. I went with a pallet of acrylic paint in wicker white, red, teal, turquoise, gold, brown and dark brown.
The entire piece was given several coats of polyurethane to seal and protect the paint. The final touch was a pretty crystal drawer pull for the faux drawer!
This is the before and after of the Queen of Hearts table.
