Reclaimed Pallet Wood Table

Don't pass by a table on the trash just because the top is in bad shape. I saw this table and the leg details are what caught my eye. I grabbed it quickly and then realized that the top ...»
was not salvageable. So I removed it and made it into a farmhouse table by painting the base black and adding pallet wood to the top.

Upcycled Metal and Glass Goodwill Table

I was at the Goodwill as I always am a few times a week and I spotted this metal bottom and glass top table. I thought it would be a challenge because I'm not usually keen on pieces like ...»
this but something about it was calling my name. I paid 20 bucks for it. After it was sitting for quite sometime the idea of chalkboard paint for the surface came to me. I sprayed the top with Krylon black chalkboard paint, which is perfect for writing those little reminders of what to TiVo, what not to miss, or even just a daily reminder of how beautiful life is. As for the bottom half I decided on a green shade in Pistachio from the Krylon line. The bottom was so detailed I decided to spray paint it instead of using a brush. You can see the step by step process and more photos at my blog....http://quirkycool.blogspot.com/2013/04/upcycled-metal-and-glass-table.html

Beach Cottage Inspired Side Table

I found this side table at the Goodwill for 20 bucks. It had great small little details in the front, great condition, dovetailed and has a stone of some top. When I saw this one I new ...»
exactly what I wanted to do with it. The color was from Valspar in the shade Woodlawn Valley Haze in satin finish. Wow....This color is such an amazing blue shade. I'd love to paint everything in this color. LOL. It was an easy project too, because the wood was in such great shape I simply sanded it down a bit, Primed it, and put one coat of the Woodlawn Valley Haze on because it covered so well and I was going to shabby chic it anyway. I then sealed it with paint sealant, bought cute little white knobs and it was finished. I'm so happy with the results. It reminds me of something you'd find at a lovely little beach cottage. I'm pretty sure I was there, on the sand, with my cute little white knitted sweater reading the latest romance novel as I painted this (in my head of course.) : ) You can find the process and more photos at my blog... http://quirkycool.blogspot.com/2013/05/beach...

Does anyone have any knowledge of Style House Custom Furniture by Montgomery Ward? I'm trying to figure out its age.

Thanks!

Vintage Painted Table

I acquired this vintage chiroparactic table in 1995. The shop owner told me that it had been painted by a mother of a young son. She had recently passed away. Check out my blog post for more!

Dresser Refurnish Ideas

I got this small dresser for free and really want to make it my next project. I have already removed the hardware and started to strip the paint from the top but I have no idea what I should do from there. Sand it, primer it and paint? Or should I try to stain the wood? I would like to use it as a nightstand but because my room is without a color scheme or overall style I'm open to any and all ideas.

Remodeling: I want to paint my bedroom furniture. Do I have to strip it?

The furniture has a thin layer of varnish. I know it is thin because my daughter spilled nail polish on it and when I wiped it off the varnish and the color came off the drawer. I want to do it in a matte white/cream. Any suggestions? Thanks
