Taryn at Design, Dining + Diapers has a plain ‘ole stained side table, and wanted to give it a brand new look. With a bit of spray paint and a new weathered wood top for the table, it now looks completely different…and looks brand new. (Is it strange that old weathered wood can make something look new?)
There’s just something so appealing about reclaimed wood, don’t you think?
Here’s what Taryn’s table looked like before the transformation…
I’d say the new look is quite an improvement!
