A happy ending for a sad little table
Before I get to the post, I would like to share with you that my burlap matted frames AND my rustic clock were featured on Knock Off Decor over the long weekend. So, if you are a new follower from there, welcome! If you are a fabulous old follower, do check out my features HERE.

This poor thing was battered and bruised. There were scratches and marks everywhere and the legs were very loose. No wonder it was 8 dollars! I saw hope for this little guy. I had a vision to make him special again. After much sanding, staining, painting, sanding, waxing, and couple coats of poly, here he is all happy in his new home:
I actually decided to stain the little knobby things on front after I had it in place. ( I actually hadn't used poly or wax yet either). Hence the reason the decorations are off now. It's still drying:
Look how well he gets along with the rest of the room. So lovely!
I am so loving how this room has come together. I am almost finished.....almost.
