Coral and Blue Night Stand

Wow...June is such a C-R-A-Z-Y month.....Between birthdays (my baby boy turned 18), school dances, finals, sports banquets, races and anniversary's, I haven't had a chance to catch my breath much less Blog!!!
I did however find a little time for this furniture "re-do" and I must say I am kind-of pleased with it!!



I got it a the GW for $4.99 ( price to good to pass up), along with the little pink shelf.
Autumn helped me choose the coral and blue paint I then added Plaster of Paris, to turn it into "Chalk Paint"
The drawer pulls are form Cost Plus and I finish it with two coats of  Water-Based Polycrylic by Miniwax....
Total cost $18.00.   :)


I've got lots of other projects started so "stay tuned"...July should be a fun month!!

And as usual thanks for stopping by!!

    Now, your blog name is quite unusual . . . Spittin' Toad. I can only imagine. In the Pacific NW huh? I loved living on Whidbey Island years ago. Beautiful place.

    Your find and redo is quite nice. I keep hearing about chalk paint ... hmmmm. Okay, I actually keep reading about it.

    Enjoyed my visit, by way of Liz's Time Travel Thursday -Thanks, Jenn

    I love what you did. Didn't know you could add plaster of paris and get chalk paint. Thanks for the idea. I found you while visiting around and am now your follower. Hope you'll hop over to my place and visit and follow too. Love your table!
