Today, I have a very simple little coffee table makeover to share. I found this table at my local thrift shop and love it's clean lines and sweet shape. I also loved the pretty design on the table top.
As you can see from the picture above, I got out my Anne Sloan Chalk Paint in Paris Grey. I used my Purdy angled brush so that I didn't have to tape an edges, and just used a careful hand to paint around the table top, and paint the base. Then I lightly distressed it and finished it with a clear paste wax.
To refresh the table top I mixed one part lemon oil with one part white vinegar and just wiped it onto the table top. It helps clean and refresh, giving it a warmer glow. The top was not perfect, but I knew I would be slightly distressing the paint, so I didn't want it to be too pristine.
This makeover was sweet and simple, just like the subject!
Now it's your turn!

Love how your table turned out - beautiful job ( I'm really impressed you didn't use tape - even with a purdy I don't trust myself that much lol )

Pretty - I like that you left the top unpainted with that nice detail. Thank you for the tip on the lemon oil and vinegar - I will try that!

I love that little table. If I lived closer, I would buy it because mine is WAY too big for my small living room :/ & that one would be perf! I am on the hunt! You are awesome, and one day I will actually have something to link up, you'll see ;) xo

Cassie, you are so smart to have left the top as it was. It is absolutely gorgeous, girl!
I've been reading your blog for a little while and never commented. I love seeing your furniture re-dos!! I was just curious, do you sell all the furniture you make over when you're done with it? If not, what do you do with it?
Love that the interesting top is highlighted now! Great vision!
Thanks so much for hosting this great party! Life to the full, Melissa @ DaisyMaeBelle
