I never
intended to take a break from posting, it simply happened. Quite honestly I havent felt like it, no excuses, must have just needed the break. I have still as always been reading all of your lovely inspirational posts, though not always having left a comment. So please know they are read and enjoyed by me always....
I had a lovely fellow blogger comment and ask if I was going ok - this made me feel missed which was very nice, and quite special. (Thank you Maureen) So Im back on track and have had a growing list of items to post about.
This table I purchased on ebay for $18......

AFTER
I forgot to take a picture before and realised part way through after sanding and applying the base.
Sanded the edges to look slightly rustic as its in the spare room where I think it suits this look (my sons old room)
Quite happy with the result
Also have a few thrifty finds (will link up with Thrifty Tuesday next week), and purchases.
Here are some of them......
|
This duck egg blue jug with brown flecks for just $5
This gorgeous boudoir chair I will put in my bedroom eventually $57 on ebay
The storage jar/canister with lid from an op shop for $3, the candy bowl on left I will put mini pears in (posted previously about this one $3)
Hope you all have a lovely week

I know the feeling! I have been doing a bit of looking and not posting myself lately. I love the table, you did a great job and your little purchases are great. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love your table, it's gorgeous! And your other finds are great! Sometimes we just need a little posting break hey! It helps revive you back into blogging. Nice to have you back!

Oh you're a girl after my own heart with all you latest finds! Smart savvy shoppers unite! :-)
ReplyDeleteLove everything you've bought, isn't ebay fantastic? Your table makeover is brilliant, white is definitely the colour of choice!
I know what you mean about needing a rest from blogging it can be wonderful but a bit demanding on the commenting front which I'm getting worse and worse at, oops!

ReplyDeleteHopefully you were able to enjoy the break and I think we all look, but don't always comment. It is very time consuming and sometimes the computer isn't co-operating. I love your new/old goodies.
