A Shabby Chic Transformation

 Over the weekend I came across this great little table. It was all scratched up and looked very tired. I gave it a face lift by sanding the old varnish off the two top surfaces only to reveal this wonderful wood grain. I painted the rest heirloom white. Here are some before and after pictures.
It had this wonderful carved flower detail on the front that I thought it looked great in its natural finish. 
Here is another transformation. I picked up this brass easel.  It was nice in brass but it didn't look like a shabby chic inspired item.  All I had to do was paint it white and it transformed into the very ornate shabby chic stand. 
   Yesterday I went to my booth and loaded it up with all my great finds I found over the weekend.
Crystal flower candle holders
Porcelain blue and white tea pot wall decoration.
Antique Italian painted pictures in metal frames
If your in the area of Julington Creek stop by Sugar Bears Antique Mall.  My booth number is 34.
