Side Table Before & After

My mom found this side table at the thrift store and thought it would be a good starter project for me to work on since we are wanting to get some furniture pieces in our booth. 


Well...this was not the best looking table, but I thought with a little sanding and some yellow paint, it would be cute...not the case. I wish I had taken a picture of the yellow paint, but it was bad. It wasn't the color, it just didn't take well to whatever finish was on the table. I suppose it would have worked better if I had a real sander and actually sanded all the finish off..It might also help if I had a garage to do this stuff in ;)

So, to try to salvage this piece, I got out my trusty spray paint (not sure what my obsession with spray painting things is). I went over all the yellow pant with "watermelon" colored paint. 


Now, I know it doesn't look super awesome like I planned, but it still turned out OK. Lots better then the streaky yellow!
