So here is my latest project AKA, get this crap out of the Garage..LOL!
Its funny how you find things when you do. I have had a bunch of chairs forever and no table.
Well, My sister called me one day and told me she was at Goodwill and they had this yellow table for 14.99. She wasn't sure I would like it cause it was yellow and old. I told her to hold it for me.
So I get there and this is the table..SHAAAAA of course I LOVED IT!!
(also notice the mug she got me...ahhhh sisterly love..LOL)
So I threw it in my suburban and brought her home.
It would now join 2 of these three chairs.
and covered them with this beautiful sheet I was saving.
I knew I needed something FRENCH for this table. :) So I got one of my FAVORITE graphics from
the graphics fairy that I had been saving.
I used my carbon paper to transfer it on and started Painting..
Once it was done drying I distressed it and added some of the blue paint from the chairs in a dry brush technique on the top, to bring it all together.
I think they are the perfect fit. Don't you?
Have a BEAUTIFUL day.

Yes, they're perfect! Looks just lovely!!
How cute, this set would be great in a Lake Michigan cottage; can just imagine myself waking up to the sunrise and sipping on a hot cup o' jo!
These turned out just darling! What a great find your sister made with that table - it's the best when you don't even have to paint it! And I think I'd kill for those FREE chairs! Nicely done!
Beautiful! I love the vintage graphic. :)
I am glad that someone else saves vintage sheets like I do. Love the yellow and blue. The chairs were FREE!?! Our city will no longer let us put free items out on the curb. They actually come by and paint the items day-glo orange and charge a $30 pick-up fee to take the stuff to the landfill! Happy you saved these lovely pieces.

I "LOVE,LOVE,LOVE" IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a thing for tables, especially little tables. I don't think we can have enough of them! This one is GORGEOUS! I have an old butlers coffee table kicking around here and I want to use THAT GRAPHIC on the top tray!
Thank you for showing us your masterpiece(s)

Karin this is so cute, the whole set. Seriously, $14.99? I think they are charging way too much at my Goodwill! Love it!
It looks beautiful! I love the way the transfer turned out! Very pretty!

Yes, your table and chairs ARE the perfect fit! Love the colors together and the graphic really adds the finishing touch. I'm a Michigander and have never been to Grandville. I'll have to look it up. Hubby and I love to take summer drives in HIS/our Camero so maybe you'll see me at your booth one day.
