LITTLE MISS TREASURE BOX

I RE-DID A LITTLE END TABLE THAT I FOUND AT
A GARAGE SALE THIS PAST SUMMER FOR $5.00
IT WAS SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND WHEN WE HAD
THAT BEAUTIFUL WEATHER THIS PAST WEEK I PULLED IT OUT
AND GAVE HER A MAKE OVER.


THE REASON SHE IS CALLED 
LITTLE MISS TREASURE BOX IS
BECAUSE THE NAME OF THE PAINT
 I USED WAS TREASURE ISLE 
THE NAME FIT HER TO A TEE..
I THINK SHE LOOKS A LITTLE LIKE A TREASURE BOX WITH LEGS.

HERE ARE THE BEFORE PICS-
IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE TRIED TO PAINT HER BEFORE I CAME ACROSS HER

SHE WAS QUITE A SAD LITTLE GIRL
NO DRAWER PULLS AND AN UNFINISHED
PAINT JOB.
WELL THE GOOD NEW IS
AFTER....








SHE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL IN HER LOVELY NEW SHADE OF GREEN. ANOTHER
PIECE OF FURNITURE SAVED!!!

THE BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS WERE PART OF MY
VALENTINES DAY BOUQUET !!

    Wow, I absolutely love that table! That is also my very favourite shade of green :)
    I feel inspired, I am about to go and buy the paint to give my own little plant stand a make over in the very same shade!
    I will pop the results on my blog later this weekend
