For my project o' the day I worked on a lamp table/magazine holder and decided to change it into a entry table/shoe holder.
I sanded the crud out of it and painted it
uno
dos
tres times
plus a little touch-up after that. White paint is always a beast don't you think? You have to put so many coats on to get rid of the little shadows of the underlying colors. I tried really hard to find my round stamps to make some little birdies and I couldn't find them anywhere!! I'm kind of glad I didn't end up finding them because I was really pleased with how the vinyl ones turned out! I just have to top it off with a clear varnish and it's ready to go head over to Poppy Ginger!

Your projects are amazing. I love the wording on your shoe holder/entrance table. It's so crisp and new looking. I added my link to Mr. Linky. I'll be ready for your next party!

I really like the birds :) The black against the white is so satisfying!
ReplyDeleteHey! I did one again! I think I linked it with Mr. Linky thing?
ReplyDeleteI would have never looked at an old magazine holder and said, "This would make a great shoe holder for my entry." That is just about the most creative thing I have ever seen and it turned out so cute!
ReplyDeleteI so need a shoe rack like this! Way cute!
ReplyDeleteI did the Mr. Linky thing too! I found you through Hannah and wanted to join in!
I added ours to Mr. Linky! Jeannine did a tutoral for a homemade sign for father's day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Andy!
I LOVE this table. How delightful.
