Design on a dime is true to my heart. My home is full of my “finds” that I have repurposed and thrown into my decor. I love that they are one of a kind, interesting and, well, cheap!
A great way to save is by finding small end tables that can be put next to a sofa or chair or even against a wall. I just don’t see spending hundreds of dollars on a small table. When out and about, I always am on the look for a good, matching set of tables. If you find a pair, snap them up!
These little tables were purchased at a thrift store and they cost $14.99 – for the pair. I brought them home and applied General Finishes Seagull Gray. Distressing the details adds that pop of interest.
The tops are the old, inlay leather tops. I happen to love these because when they are painted and distressed, they look amazing. The detail pops through and gives a pretty cool look to a piece.Right now, I have them flanking my fireplace.
In the spring, they were in place against the sofa.
Last fall, I pushed them together to create a longer, almost console table, out of the pair.
