Tea for Two Table

Tea for Two Table
21" tall x 28" wide x 35 1/2" (both leaves up) or 28" (both leaves down)
Just $150
at Frou Frou Galore in Old Town Spring, Texas

I just love how this little table turned out but it didn't come easy!
I actually struggled with finishing this table & it sat for weeks half way done.  First of all it was in pieces and I had to glue & screw and basically rebuild the whole thing to stabilize it so it wasn't wobbly.  Nothing irritates me more than a shifty & wobbly table that has compromised joints.  So after doing that I decided to use a Chalk Paint colored in Duck Egg Blue.  I had just enough in a can that was left over from another project.  I painted it and yuck! .. I still wasn't happy with it and yet again it sat unfinished for another couple days while I got distracted working on another project.  After regrouping, I tackled the table again and thought.. I'll just paint it white, finish it and get this thing out of my house!  Ok, with that done I started the magic of sanding to distress it and was delighted when with pops of dusty blue emerged from underdeath. 

This table is just the right height to add 2 little chairs for a childs table. 
Tea Pary Anyone?

Drop Both sides and this table is an easy Side table for any Room!

French Country Table & Chairs with Hutch! -Custom order makeover

A lady contacted me after seeing my french-country painted pieces online & asked if I would makeover her vintage finds.  She loved my combination of refinished dark stained wood along with my country-cream finish.  I was happy to take on her pieces which included a pedestal table with 5 chairs & a hutch.  I'm sharing with ya'll how they turned out & I hope you like the results! 
Congratulations Carrie & Greg on the purchase of your new home.

After a few minor repairs this piece was ready for its transformation.  After refinishing the top of the base chest, I decided to refinish the doors as well.  I thought it would "marry" the 2 pieces better & add more richness to their look.  I also painted the backing & insides of the top cabinet a shade darker for a subtle contrast.  I thought this would be a sharp look as I didn't want it to look like plain ol' kitchen cabinets.


Pretty with dishes!

The original hardware was fine so I just put everything back in place.

Ready for dishes & display pieces!

AFTER

5-CHAIRS were Redone in FRENCH-COUNTRY Style
























The table top was refinished & stained dark & the base was hand-painted & finished with a lovely French Wax giving it a subtle satiny glow.  The owners have iron details in their home so I left the metal scrolled pieces original to the piece to go with their decor.
Thanks!! Carrie & Greg.
