The legs are gorgeous (Duncan Phyfe style)
The top was a mess:
I was happy to see that it was of good quality - Thomasville!
I primed it:
I gave the table a few coats of spray paint (you might remember that I am not too fond of Heirloom white, but it is growing on me!):
Hobby Lobby sells this large wall stencil:
I sponged the diamonds and I wasn't too crazy about this idea:
So I painted it again:
And I spray painted the diamonds this time:
I imagine I only have $50.00 in the whole project!I am sharing this project with:

Oh Patti, it's simply stunning. I would die to have a table like that. You did a wonderful job painting it and the heirloom white looks just perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful table top...I think it will be a perfect addition to a beautiful dining room!!! applause!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy July 4th Patti! I love this! You did a really fabulous job!

$10.00 for a Duncan Phyfe! So impressed on your recent score. I love the amazing transformation that you did with the table!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors and harliquin. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteYou powered through to an awesome finish! Your table looks stylish, chic and unique. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic table! I never get so lucky at my local Salvation Army! HaHa!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by DesignTies this evening... my doormat project WAS fun. :-)

It looks great. Have u thought about maybe painting the perimeter around the table top black? Just a suggestion.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! That table will last! I have one that was my husband's mother's ... and we broke one of he legs while moving ... power screwed it back together ... and that was 30 years ago! I just moved it from the dining room about a year ago ... but only because I wanted a different look! You did a fantastic job on this table ... can't wait to see how you use it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great table! I cannot believe this table was only $10. You scored, girl!
ReplyDeleteGreat makeover! I've got a kid's craft table I'm wanting to do diamonds on...I'll have to try the stencil...looks so much faster then trying to tape it all off.
ReplyDeletePatti, you did a fantastic job on that table. I would have never thought about putting the diamonds on top, but I love it. Great bargin at 10.00. Why don't I find deals like that.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun, different twist on a great, classic style of table...I've refinished many of these tables in my time! I'm really glad you showed it to us on Modern Craftswoman Monday! Thanks, Rory
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I would LOVE a table like that!
ReplyDeleteLove, love this...we are on the same wave length...my post is on a throw away hall table, painted, stenciled....this gives me a great idea for some of my other tables,
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed,

That table is beautiful. A great find for $10.00! Your redo came out wonderful. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteThat is a terrific transformation! What a stunning table!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by,
I am having a giveaway and a new blog party - hope you stop by!

Very nice job. I think the subtle paint change vs. a bold like black and white was a smart choice! You could use this anywhere! Love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a bargin for $10 bucks. It is so beautiful. Love the dimond designs. Blessings, Vicky
ReplyDeleteLove it, Patti, and the harlequin pattern came out great sprayed! I bought that same stencil from Hobby Lobby online {we don't have the actual store here}. I haven't used mine yet, but I love seeing an idea for it!
ReplyDeletepatti- that looks fabulous! i have used that stencil before as well and i just used a regular old stencil brush. then to give it a moew worn effect i dry brushed over it with the base coat color and it worked well. i love the colors you chose on this table- great job!
ReplyDeleteGood value for $10 bucks! Looks like it is solid wood on top too. Is that right? Just curious as to why you didn't refinish the top.
ReplyDeleteThe table looks great, you are braver than I am, using a large stencil like that! I'm a big chicken and would have stopped at the heirloom white!
ReplyDeleteThats a really pretty, really classy design. Love the colors that you used, and what a bargain you got!
ReplyDeletePatti, it is simply beautiful! May have to get a stencil like that for myself. Thanks so much for sharing. Thanks also for stopping by my blog and for the sweet comment on my table redo.
ReplyDeletePatti,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find!
Love the new re-do!
Can't wait to see it in your home!
