Eclectic chic gossip/telephone table

Yesterday I found a great piece at the thrift store for $15. It was boring wood with a dated and dirty upholstered seat. Great bones though! Here is the before.



I wanted to go with a funky bright color and vibrant fabric, but I plan on selling this, so to move it quickly, had to play it safe.





It even has a "cute" back side....

  9. Love it! I have one of these too, that I got at auction, and am going to paint. The shape of the table isn't as cute as yours though. Love the combo of saucy fabric and distressed white paint.
