Piece of Work Wednesday Furniture Link Party Number 49!
Tuesday, August 16, 2011
This is the last link party I will be throwing from this house. Kind of sad in a way. Buying this house is what started my passion for redoing furniture, so it's like the start of it all right here. More boxes have been packed, and I have to admit that it is all really getting to me. I am one of those people who feels agitated when the house is a mess, so image how shot my nerves are right now, with piles and boxes and piles of boxes everywhere!!!! Just call me Gaga because "I'm on the edge." But she's on the edge of glory and I'm on the edge of insanity. Not quite the same, I guess.
I picked up this plain jane coffee table at the auction before Lucketts this past Spring. It was not my favorite, but it was $10, so why not? It sat and sat and waited for me to be inspired with what to do to it. And I unfortunately can not find a before picture, so when you see the after just image it was brown. It was. Anyhow, inspiration never came on this one, so I decided just to paint it a happy cottage blue color. I can see it in a quaint little cottage as it is petite in size. I distressed the edges slightly to show off the details.
You can tell I have nothing fun and amazing to show you when I resort to projects that were never good enough to make it on the blog when they were done, huh? I can't wait to have a new house to share with you and new projects! Til then, I am going to do my best NOT to bore you to death. :)

I really like your little table~the color is so pretty! I hope the packing goes fast! Have a really great day!
Thanks so much for hosting, Cassie! I hope you have a fantastic week!
You never bore us, Cassie! Love the cottage blue table and it's fun to hear what you're up to as you walk along this new journey to the next chapter of your life. I am the same and get overwhelmed when things are a mess and chaotic but keep the end result in mind. It's exciting! A new door is opening for you and you are following your dream!
OK GaGa, if anyone can do this you can! I would be the same way.
I think that little coffee table is really cute and cottagy ~ not at all boring! I'm sure the packing is a drag, but it's leading you to something new and exciting! Hang in there Gaga!
What a cute little table and you or your projects are never boring!!!

Oh and your hair isn't blue. Just think of that when the boxes are getting to you and you'll feel much better :)
Thanks for hosting Cassie!
Good luck w/ your move. Packing up is tough but you'll be in you haooy new home soon!
Aw, packing up is really hard - but just wait until you're all moved, then it'll be great! :)
Thanks for hosting, Cassie! Love the color of your table. I posted two turquoise projects myself. Actually, once I posted #40, I realized I think I posted it here previously, so you can delete it. I wasn't able to delete it on my end. Sorry about that!
aww, I'm so sorry you're stressed and the packing and mess is getting to you. :(
love the little coffee table.
take care of yourself!

Some day it will all just be a memory you can laugh at. OK. Maybe just shake your head and smile at. Hang in there!
Cute coffee table!
Thank you for hosting! By the way, I love keeping up with your adventures. :)
That turned out so cute Cassie! I love the color you used!! Thanks for hosting!
Finally! I don't paint too much furniture but I finally did a piece to link up! Ha! Now I know why I don't paint furniture :p Think I'll stick to walls!
I hear ya. I washed an Oprah show once that said that if your house is a mess, you tend to be more stressed and unhappy. Luckily, your reason has a purpose with a terrific outcome.
Hang in there and know there's light at the end of the tunnel.
BTW, the yellow watering can peaking in the background is cool!
