Refinishing an Entryway Table

Refinishing an Entryway Table

I bought this table at a garage sale for $2 about a year ago. I refinished it by giving it a nice coat of paint and put it in the entryway to hold gloves and hats.

I decided it was time for the table to get a makeover. I wanted to paint it orange and use it in our living room for a side table. Here’s the result.

I sanded and painted it.

I also put a stenciled design on the top of the table.

I got this beautiful stencil from one of my favorite craft stores, Hobby Lobby. Here is the link to the stencil.

I decided I liked it so much I would stencil on the bottom of the table as well.

Not too shabby. I love how adding just a little bit of embellishment really makes this piece of furniture stand out even more.

I also hot glued ribbon on the edge of the table where there used to be veneer.

The veneer was coming off when I bought it and so I put ribbon on the edge when I refinished it both times.

I like the new look. How about you?
