Side Table Makeover
Welcome to the July edition of the monthly Creative Craft hop!
Thank you Donna from Modern On Monticello for hosting!
Whether you’re a friend, a reader,
or a visitor from talented Tammy at Patina and Paint
I am so glad you’re here to see some of our creative crafts!
Today I am sharing a quick and easy side table makeover
This table sits beside my favorite chair at the beach house,
where I like to sit and read, watch TV or work on my laptop
The beach ball easel stand on the tray
is where I put my Kindle reader or phone when I read
I have noticed that the tabletop was looking a little rough
Yikes!!
I finally thought, I should give it a makeover!
I cleaned it off and got out some paint
I used artist’s acrylic because that’s all I had
I used white mixed with a touch of blue
to give it a soft sort of weathered look
I looked through my craft stash~
I wanted to glue something decorative on the raised wooden pieces
at each end of the table top
The sand dollars are too delicate,
but I found 2 large blue bubbles with flat bottoms
and paired them with smaller blue and turquoise glass beads
A dab of hot glue and it was done!
Back in place
It matches the easel stand and looks so pretty~
Much better, don’t you think?
I love it now!

This is darling! I love coastal themes. Can’t get over the kindle holder–love it. Visiting from Happiness is Homemade.
Thanks Jennifer! The kindle holder is made from a shipping box, it’s so handy, I use it all the time!
What a wonderful transformation Jenna! I agree with Jeanie that this is one happy table. Enjoy! P.S. Love the kindle holder too.
I love the coastal style upgrade you gave your side table! It makes me think of beach water and sea glass. So pretty!
