Nightstand Makeover


I got this great little table at a garage sale for $2. 
2 is my lucky number. 
If any piece of furniture is marked $2
I am going to buy it!!! Guaranteed. 
Its almost becoming a joke. 
We are starting to get some strange looks at sales
when we burst into laughter when something is marked $2.
Em found this table.  Sooo...if I can't remember the price
I pretty much blog that it was $2.


It was solid wood, old, and DUSTY!!
I painted it grey.  I actually bought the
Benjamin Moore Paint at a garage sale for 50 cents.


I sketched on a flower and used a font from word. 
I used the old rub and trace.


I just spray painted the handle white.
