Love the way you added the nail head trim to the table. Draws the eye just to where you want the attention. -
Love those rattan tables. Why don't I find neat stuff like this at yard sales? *pout -
Fantastic job! Great find. Teresa D, I am so mad with myself because I missed the big yard sale for the United Methodist Children's Home in Decatur on 20 & 21. I even cut out the article in the AJC and posted it on the refrigerator and I still forgot it! If you are really into finding some unique pieces, you will want to try some Goodwill stores and the Vincent St. De Paul stores. I love these places. I go there to buy books. The consignment shops can get expensive, but the thrift stores are usually very reasonable. -
Very cute Danielle! I bet your friend was thrilled. -
Wow what a nice thing to do for your friend and what wonderful finds! I like how you've spruced them up and you can't beat the price! :) -
These are great finds. @Teresa, sometimes you score and sometimes you don't, but don't ever stop looking! -
Teresa, you have to be willing to throw it out occasionally! I didn't think those tables would work out but worth a try for $10! -
@Danielle - I'd say and it worked! They look lovely. :)

They look great! What kind of paint did you use on the rattan? -
Jeanette, if you hear of any other big sales in the area, let me know and maybe I'll go with you or meet you there!

1614- I used Annie Sloan chalk paint after a good scrubbing with 409. It holds up really well when you rub it down with the AS clear wax!

Thanks Danielle...good to know! I'm in the midst of my first experience {experiment, ha!} with ASCP. I'm totally hooked, even though I took on a huge project and it's taking forever. ;-)
