One of my favourite parts of furniture upcycling is treasure hunting for sturdy, interesting and well-priced pieces of old furniture. And with Lather Creations just starting out, it doesn't get any better than $5!
I found this little gem of a table at the Salvation Army. It's durable, solid wood and has a lovely curved top. It needs a good sand job, one table leg is decorated with children's stickers! For this one, I'm thinking of trying out one of the distressing techniques I found in my new painting book that I picked up a few weeks ago.
I'll keep you up to date on how it goes!
PS: Happy 4th of July to all my friends south of the border! Hope you are enjoying your holiday!
