Furniture Makeovers

Before & After with CeCe Caldwell Memphis Blue and Chalkboard Paint

This is what this sad little table looked like the first time I saw it.  Bikeman texted this photo to me while I was working at Roses and Rust.  He enjoys being my picker!  So far he’s found SIX small tables and a vintage sewing machine cabinet.  I’ve only painted two tables and the cabinet. Plus I have two more frames and two of our own tables that I need to paint.  I’m way behind! I think he paid $5 for this one.

Blue Chalkboard Table

I love the scroll edge on this and even the faux leather top.  But it was pretty scratched up so I decided to paint it and add a chalkboard top.  I’d seen so many nice pieces painted CeCe Caldwell’s Memphis Blue on Instagram recently.  I knew I wanted to try it.  Jordy thought I should add the chalkboard top and I have to say I think it was a great idea! But now she wants it for her apartment.  Maybe I’ll may give her a discount.

I also distressed this with a wet rag then sealed it with the clear wax.  I think I’m getting the hang of it.  Another thing I like about it is that it doesn’t drip or smell.  So I waxed this in the middle of the living room last week while Glenn was gone and I was catching up on all the TV shows that he doesn’t like (Nashville, Project Runway, Mad Men, etc.)

    Whoa!!!! What??!?!?!! Wow!!! What a great transformation!!! I’m just feelin’ kind of goofy even looking at it! I am always in such awe of those who can first have a vision for rundown items, and then for those who can actually DO something about it!!! This looks terrific now, and the chalkboard top is such a neat idea! I could envision using this as a serving table and just writing the names of cheeses or breads or whatever directly onto the table. Cool!!!! Great job!
