I was perfectly content with the end table I had in Kayla’s room. I had found it at a yard sale for $5 a couple of years back when I was preparing for Kayla’s arrival. I painted it, changed out the knob and distressed it a little.
However, I have fallen in love with French Provincial furniture. I love the girly handles and the slight curves of the frame. When I found this one for $5 at a yard sale I had to bring it home.
Despite the fact that is was green I just loved the sweet curves and adorable pull and knew it must replace the table in her room.
I lightly sanded everything down fixing some of the dings and dents. Then I spray primed and spray painted it Blossom White by Rustoleum.
After reading Mandie’s e-book and learning how she distressed furniture I was able to use way less sandpaper and have more control over the distressing.
I just highlighted all the edges by distressing slightly.
Of course I had to do my little trick by Mod Podging fabric inside the drawer. (Click here to see the tutorial).
It just makes it look cleaner and gives a little love to the inside of the drawer.
Can you believe I actually kept the drawer pulls as is? Yah, I know…never happens.
It was meant to be. It looks perfect in that space. Once her room is transitioned to a big girl room it will be the perfect nightstand next to her new twin bed. Not that I am planning her big girl room in my head already! 😉
and this month I am reviewing the Steam Machine Plus. I think everyone ought to own a steam machine for cleaning. Now which type you buy is up to you and the things you need cleaned the most. My absolute favorite thing I love about Home Right steam machines are that they are multi purpose. 
So sweet!
Only one word….perfect!
Love it! Great find!
Love it! I can't believe found that for $5. I'm so jealous! It's beautiful!
Oh man…that is so beautiful. I love the curvy lines on it and the new color! Beautiful!
That looks awesome. I picked up a night stand at Goodwill a while back that is going to become my daughters' play kitchen sometime before Christmas (hopefully). After seeing yours…it must be French Provincial. I wouldn't have known enough about styles to place it. You learn something new everyday! I especially love how it looks all together with everything in her room.
Gorgeous!!!!
I DO like this one better! $5!!! What a steal:)
Oh honey……very nice!
Hey, if you don't have Kayla's old night stand ear-marked for another place in your house, I could use that one in my bathroom for towels. ;D
Are you kidding? Man, I've got to go garage saling with you!!!
My sister had a very similar bedroom set when we were growing up. I love how you've update it!
Beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous style and your makeover does it proud!
I have that exact same table! We found it at a yard sale too! Unfortunately we accidentally put it in storage with a bunch of other stuff when we moved to Europe. I was so mad when I realized it got put in storage! I have so many spots in my house that are perfect for it.
Yours looks perfect in Kayla's room!
It's beautiful, Beckie!!! 🙂
How pretty! Have a nice weekend!
Both tables are absolutely adorable and at those prices you can't go wrong.
It's great, Beckie–just right! But what did you do with that cute little table that was in there? I know you didn't kick it to the curb!
I love the distressed look of the furniture. I came across your post this afternoon while browsing interior design blogs and the topic of window treatment selection was very interesting to me. Could you used window coverings to get this same distressed look? It is true that you must dress your windows appropriately to bring out their true beauty. Thank you for writing and as a special thanks to you and your readers, I would like to offer a 20% off coupon using this code upon checkout: BLG20.
Fantastic find and you did a great job with the refinishing. After seeing several posts about the tips in this ebook, I'm seriously considering purchasing it.
Great job! I am in love with french provecial right now too!
great makeover. the fabric is lovely.
All you people who find great stuff at these prices are so lucky. I rarely find anything that nice cheap.
I especially like that you kept the old hardward the same. I don't think it would have been as cute without it. I'm sure you and your daughter will love this piece for years to come.
Turned out great. Love it.
Love the transformation…I need to try your fabric in the drawer trick. What a great find.
Absolutely fabulous. I love that style too. 🙂
This turned out awesome! I love the entire corner you've got going on there! Very CUTE! I would just love it if you would come over to Crazy Cute at Between U & Me and share this with everyone! 🙂

I love that table as well! Great job painting it! You have a beautiful baby room!
I would've killed for french provincial when I was a little girl! I'm so glad you did this for your daughter. I just HAVE to have a granddaughter. Soon. Well, not REAL soon. But . . . eventually.
btw, I'm actually making epackets of some of my paint patterns. I'd love to say I'm writing an ebook, but that sounds so daunting. Much less threatening to say epatterns. For Christmas – unless Life interrupts me.
Would love for you to stop by Sunday and link up to Passion for Paint!

its a beautiful little table, even though a bit old, its perfect for a bedroom or a guest room to accompany a reading chair and to keep glasses adn other small things in the given drawer, i liked it
I've kept this post new in my reader for all this time until I was ready to buy the book and I finally did.
