Remember this table I found months ago for 12.00?
And the fugly stool for 10.00?
I reupholstered the stool but was not quite sure what to do with it.
Recently I picked up this lamp for 2.99 at a thrift store and I redid the shade to match the stool.

Yesterday I painted the table gold.
I used a matt gold on it.
Long ago I bought this Patina secretary. I designed it myself and it took over a year to get it.
Click to enlarge. It has hand painted cherubs across the front and insects all along the sides. Dragonflies and bees and the like.
I even covered the stool with bee fabric.
It is quite a regal piece.
This is another patina piece which I also designed.
Here is my 14.99 bench from the other day....perfect at the foot of my bed.
And here is my new side table, lamp and stool. The trio cost a total of about 25.00.
Blends in nicely with the good stuff!

You have inspired me not to be timid, but to do what I want with a simple little side table I have: mosaic the top with random squares of vitreous glass, and paint the edge (and perhaps beyond) with a metallic paint. Thanks for all the things you share.....Deb
