Your Tea Table Is Done, Mademoiselle

I finally had a day to start and actually finish a couple of my larger projects.  The first one was the little table and chairs I picked up ~ free ~ curbside from an old childhood friend of my daughter’s.  It seemed fitting as my daughter sat at this table playing tea with her friend.  Here is a picture of it right after I picked it up to refresh your memory.

A sunny but breezy day had me outside with these pieces, as well as a few others.  I tried the Kilz primer spray paint on this and the jury is still out on whether or not I like it.  Here it is primed and already looking cottagey!

After a couple of coats of Heirloom White spray paint, a brush on from the quart size, a coat of wipe on poly and this project was done!  Bonus ~ I didn’t make the lawn look like a football field either!

I put it in one of our spare bedrooms and I couldn’t resist setting it up for tea to show it off!

I set up the little shelf piece I transformed from this post, but only put out a couple of the teapots.

I had a left over piece of fabric from my runners that fit this table perfectly!  So I added a ruffle to each end and added it to the table.

I added a few Alice in Wonderland themed things I won from Cindy at Whimsical Musings to the upper shelving.

I still want to make cushions for the chairs out of the Alice in Wonderland fabric I purchased a few months ago, but that will wait until after all my furniture projects are done.  All in all, I’m quite pleased with the way it turned out!
