Another clock table....

I saw a fabulous coffee table makeover at A Vintage Vine and I wanted to do something similar. I actually have a very similar table to the one she made over but I thought I would try it with this end table first:
The table was only $15.00 at the flea market. I sanded it and painted it Heirloom White:
I traced some Roman Numerals that I printed from Word on the computer and painted them freehand:
I sanded the table to "shabby it" up a bit:
And here is the final result. I am considering painting the "hands" of the clock on it.
But for now I just put a plant on it:

  3. Love it, Patti! I've been thinking about doing this on one of my older round tables, but I went a different way with it {I'll be sharing that sometime next week}. Although I have a second, shorter one I could try it on and if it doesn't work out, it would be no loss.

  4. Oh I like that. I am working on an antique bed warmer to paint and put in my bedroom. Started to put the primer on the other day and the gizmo won't work. Now have to get back to town to get another can of primer. Wanting to get this done. Happy Mother's day.

  10. So pretty! I agree -- adding the hands of the 'clock' would be the finishing touch on a beautiful remake project!
