I'm not big on mission-style furniture. It's just not me. Yet I saw this end table at Goodwill recently and I was really drawn to it. Turns out we actually need an end table/bedside table so I caved and spent the $4.99 for it, knowing all the while that I was going to paint it. In my zeal to paint it I almost forgot to take "before" pictures. Sorry. (And no, I didn't prime, Shhh.)
Here it is without the drawer.
I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Paris Grey as well as Ace Hardware's Clark + Kensington paint and primer in Decorator's White. I replaced the drawer pull with a porcelain monogram one from Hobby Lobby for 82 cents on clearance. Yay, it was perfect. And here's the final product.
I'm loving it with a recent thrift store globe find on top. I like the globe especially because I think it rocks the whole blue-on-blue thing really well.
I really like the side spindles so much better now that they're white.
And here's the inexpensive little porcelain monogrammed drawer pull. Love it!
I'm considering this one a real success!
It will be going to the Lake and filling in there as my son's bedside table. I think it will work out just great.
What do you think?
