Before and After: Love Letters Bedside Table

Here's a peek at another piece I just finished.  This bedside table is sturdy with a capital S!  Can you believe that massive floral knob?  It's actually two parts and I'm pretty excited to save it and repaint to use on anothe project.  But I had other plans for this guy...


After the usual sanding and priming, I painted on another of my new mistint finds - a smoky blue gray from Benjamin Moore.  I added some pretty paper detailing on the front drawer, if you look closely it's a retro postcard collection print which inspired the table's name.  A lovely little glass knob was the final touch on this romantic bedside table!






If you live in the Winnipeg area and are interested in purchasing the Love Letters Bedside Table, you can do so here.

Okay NOW I'm going to bed! Have a great night!

    You are keeping busy! It looks lovely. I might e-mail you but I'm curious about the paper you use. Is it scrapbook paper, wallpaper or something else?

    Very, very pretty. I love old postcards! I bought some old Paris postcards off Ebay once, they're one of my favorite things!
