  5. I see these coffee tables at the thrift stores all the time and just walk on by.
    You have done such a great make-over! Next time, I might take one of those tables home and do a make over.

  7. I recently aquired two tables like the second one. At this time they are painted blue,but not jellin with the color. Probably will be white and distressed.

    What did you use on the top? Paper or fabric? Sealer????

  17. Jen, if you have the other city table, you can make a beautiful ottoman to go in the same room! We hope you do!

  18. Ooh, very nice! They're both adorable. Someone was offering a table like your city mouse for free on craiglist this week, but I'm way too tired to think of new projects, so I let it get away.

  23. Very cute! I redid a little table like the second one too for our porch (you can find it on my blog somewhere in June I think)... but anyway - it turned out sooo cute. And I see these all the time at thrift shops. Well done.
