Romantic Frenchy Table Makeover

Happy Friday! I just finished working on this sweet little french style nightstand. I think it turned out really nice. I love all of the wonderful detail.

Here is the before picture. I primed, painted {Valspar baby Blue} and glazed with Valpsar Asphaltum and then a metallic silver glaze.
I also painted the handles with satin nickel. Let me know what you think! Please take a look at my Party page to see where I'm partying!

I think you got more done in the last month than I have in the last year. But I think this last one is my favorite! I've got a couple provincial end tables from craigslist that I'm looking to redo and you've given me some great inspiration.
Thanks,
Susanne.

OK, how did this happen that I was not a follower? Your makeovers are AMAZING! I love your blog. I will be stopping by regularly from now on. Do you sell just on craigslist?

Thanks for stopping by my blog, too.

What a wonderful treasure find. And you did a fantastic redo on it! You really brought out the details of this little nightstand!

Pat said...

Beautiful! I spotted one just like this at my local thrift store and I'm hoping nobody buys it before the price comes down. After seeing yours, I may have to go back and splurge!

You have sealed my french provincial dresser's fate! I painted it heirloom white and added a glaze, but I just wasn't LOVING it. I love the color you used on your dresser. Thanks for sharing.
