First up, this little stool that I finished a few weeks ago, but it's so small that I didn't think it deserved it's own blog entry.

Next is a sewing table that I found at a thrift store. It had already been gutted, so that's a bonus! I glued the top down with Gorilla glue because, without the weight of the sewing machine, it's easily tipped over when open.

After some white paint and gold Rub-n-Buff:
Hope you are all staying cool and had a fabulous 4th of July!!

Both look amazing. The stripes are such a creative idea. Hugs, Marty
I've certainly lost my painting mojo...it's just too hot!! Your tables look great :)
Your a brave girl going out in that heat!
LOVE both pieces and the stripes are teriffic!
Oh humidity. I'm not going to lie, 110+ in Arizona is not all that fun but at least it's not even close to 70% humidity! You are a pro for painting in that weather! That little rub n' buff table is fantastic. :)
I LOVE the top of your sewing table you did!! The only rub-n-buff I've seen is in tiny little tubes- is that what you used?? It looks amazing!!
Your tables turned out amazing!!!
I just did a sewing table ( last week ) almost identical to yours!
Have a good one
Hugs,

They both turned out great! I especially like the little stool and think it did deserve it's own post. lol . The sewing cabinet is so elegant, you really took it up a notch! Ann

These turned out great - I have a similar bench and am thinking of stripes for it, too! Now you have inspired me!
Cute! I'm loving the stripes! We have horrible heat here too, I just paint in the house.
Loving the stripe theme!.....Great choices on color too.
I need to get some Rub n Buff and give it a go! This table turned out really sweet. ~ Maureen
I love the stripes! What is rub and buff and where did you get it? I really like the gold, it adds so much to that table.

Love the stripes - my daughter would love them too (but she's at the beach so I can't show her right now). We just moved into our new home, and she wanted stripes on her wall. They came out great and we are looking for a side table next to her sofa. Thanks for the inspiration!
I am loving those stripes! But seriously girl, get out of that heat!
Both of these transformations are really awesome. My favorite is the sewing table, but both are really gorgeous, I love your work and am fan of your projects.
Love the stripes. Did you use rub n buff for the gold stripes? It turned out great!
I love the white and gold together... Very beautifully done ! Found you at FlamingoToes.com link up party. Thanks for sharing. I might have to try stripes on my next project now ! :)
