I bought this column/plant stand thingy a few years ago at a thrift store for about $0.50. I've never really had a good use for it, so when I needed a new small side table, this little guy fell into the line of fire.
I epoxied a cheap pre-cut wooden round from Lowes to the top and spray painted the whole thing white (because that's the color I had on hand).
I might go back with a punchier color later. But I like the white for now. Easy and very cheap is my favorite kind of project.

This is so genius and chic, love it, great job...what an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing! And costly!
ReplyDeleteThis loooks just fabulous! You did it again girl, pulled over a simply AMAZING look on a dime!
ReplyDeleteThe table looks great (as do ALL your little DIY projects), but what I'm really swooning over is the table vignette from your previous house!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant. I love this kind of creativity. And I love your motto.
ReplyDeleteStunning. And I love how cost effective it is. Great creativity!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Your pic with you new table and purple chair is gorgeous, magazine worthy! Great job.
ReplyDeleteWow, very creative. I can't believe you bought it for so cheap too! Looks really beautiful by that chair.
ReplyDeletewhat a great way to use what you have!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I love that sunburst above your console table!
ReplyDeleteLove how this turned out. It looks wonderful as a new side table.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! And that purple chair is fabulous :)
ReplyDeleteGreat new table! And I love it next to the purple chair...looks amazing.

I love the idea of repurposing something you already own -- especially when it's something that formerly didn't serve much use.
ReplyDeleteLooks great!
It looks stunning! I must say that you're a really great photographer! The lighting and everything is perfect!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I feel like that could look cool in a really bright color, like a kelly green or orange or something. Or if you don't want to burn your retinas then white, which is very cool as well.
ReplyDeleteYou have inspired me to go thrifting and see what catches my eye - your creativity is infectious! Do you take your own photos? It's clear I have no skill comparatively
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your side table (end table? whatever table?) that has the stools underneath it. I have my go to vintage furniture store, but I definitely need to do some more thrifting.
ReplyDeleteThis is so great! Thank you for another inspiring DIY. :D
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your display of projects around the home! You do a great job and inspire another who is "on a constant budget"!
ReplyDeleteThis turned out so well! I love before and after's.
ReplyDeleteLove this idea! Definitely bookmarked the post for future reference!
ReplyDeleteHelloooo!! I was wondering what color and brand of paint you have in this picture. We are currently in the process of buying a home and it realllllly needs a new coat of paint and I love the two colors you have. I see that the color in the hallway is a tan-ish color, and the other looks a little blue. Do you mind sharing what colors they are? I have the same color floor and I having been debating colors very similar to yours. Thanks for your help. You can email me at blondeeDM@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteWe are being tight too. Getting creative makes it extra special. love what you did!
ReplyDeleteI love the side table, it goes perfectly with the purple wing chair.
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome, girl!!! Pure genius!
ReplyDeleteHi, I just came across your post.
ReplyDeleteI like your "makeovers".
Love the "Little white table". I'm all for re-inventing pieces of furniture. Paint cures all. Feels like you are always getting something new.
Thanks for sharing.

Great idea! I have a chair almost exactly like that (different color though) and have been looking for a round little table to go with it. :)
