From EWWWWW to Ooooooohhhhhhhhh!

Awesome roadkill find! Small shabby chic nightstand, practically stuck her thumb out from the roadside and asked for a lift. Who am I to drive past a damsel in distress? Besides, look at those legs! She had a bad dye job to be sure. Someone had attempted putting her in leather. For shame.

So off came her hardware and out came her drawers. I sprayed the hardware with silver "Hammered Metal" spraypaint by Rustoleum that I had from painting my Mom's concrete steps (yep, you heard me right) and broke out the AQUA! OK, actually Rustoleum's "Painters Touch" spraypaint in *AQUA* :) :) :) Just typing that colour makes me smile. I didn't bother to sand or strip her down, I wanted that weird leathering texture to stay....it was kinda cute on her. The inspiration for blue came straight from the lovely lady Devore.

And so she dried out in the garage.....and then came in to become my telephone table. We are so far very happy together! I'll be linking her up to Fresh Coat Fridays. Linky up from my sidebar :)
