check out this little gem

This little table has a funny story behind it. One Saturday morning the girls and I were playing in the family room and out of the corner of my eye through the window I saw some furniture sitting at the end of the neighbors driveway. On further inspection there was a "FREE" sign on it. Score.  There was a little brown sad looking table just waiting for someone to rescue it. Me!  My husband, however, did not agree nor share my enthusiasm.  Go figure. It took about an hour of begging and convincing him that "it's the perfect size and exactly what I've been looking for!" and threats to "just go buy the one hundred dollar one at NFM that I've been wanting" to FINALLY get him to take the walk of shame and rescue the free table.  He must have had himself all tense (I can't imagine why) because as he picked up the table and turned to walk home, out went his back.  Like, bad.  That night he was seriously in agony. Did I feel bad, yes, of course, but a couple trips to the Chiro later he's just fine....and so is this little gem of a table!  It needed some major TLC, wood glue and paint but I think it's perfect! Sorry dear.

Before (yes I got a little excited and forgot to take a picture before I started painting!)
