Duck Egg Blue Chevron Side Table

Lest you think I’ve forgotten how to rehab furniture…

This sweet little side table was part of a dresser/nightstand set that we scored on Craigslist for $75, but because of the dreadful heat this summer, it’s been sitting in my garage for a verrrrrrry long time looking all brown and glum like this:
050
So as soon as the weather cooled off, I was ready to knock out some furniture redos and I started with a cheery makeover for this table in ASCP in Duck Egg Blue and Pure White.  I liked the original hardware (and didn’t feel like buying new), so I just cleaned it up a little to remove the pre-existing grime.  I added a basket underneath for storage (and to make it look less like a nightstand).

I think she’s the perfect, fun little addition to my office/game room/craft room.
Oh… and as for the dresser?  She’s getting a makeover too in what might be my new favorite ASCP color – you’ll have to stick around to find out which one!

  1. Your table looks great! Love the chevron pattern on the top and the stripe across the drawer. And good idea to put a basket on the bottom shelf :-)

  6. so funky and chic! i love this one, rhonda!
    ps- the milk paint i used is general finishes which is actually acrylic paint made to look like milk paint.... it's smoother and not as chalky so the wipe on poly works well. i am not sure it would work as well over actual milk paint- i haven't tried!
