I spotted a ratty old bench at my sister's house that was begging to be beautified! I used the tape/paint trick to get clean lines - check it out here: http://alifedesigned.blogspot.ca/2012/08/x-m...
What a really cute idea,It looks like an entirely different piece! I know you're so happy with the outcome, you did a great job and painting the edges white made all the difference in the piece...it really has a clean crisp look now, and I don't think anything could have been further from that in the beginning! LOL
Thanks Donna + Sharon! Yes the white edges make a huge difference! It was a last minute change and I like it much better.
