Vintage Side Tables

I always love working on little side tables, maybe because I am fairly certain that you can never have enough! They can fit in little corners and fill so many needs. But it isn't all that common for me to find a set. Here is one that I worked on back in January that is pretty much identical to my new set:

Double the fun, and twice as much fun to makeover.


It always amazes me to see how much more detailed things look when they have a fresh coat of paint.


Wouldn't they be sweet as nightstands too? They are rectangular (I know, they look square in these shots) and would look great length-wise with a couple baskets holding books and pillows.

P.S. - I have an exciting new blog feature I will be announcing soon! Keep your ears and eyes peeled in the coming days.

Love love love love love! These would be perfect as nightstands in my master! And I adore how you used them as a "coffee table" in front of the sofa. I'm always inspired by you...and in fact am painting a few small things white today!
