Hey there, I was wondering if you still had the noise mechanism for the rocking chair. I'm restoring a chair for a lady I know and hers is broken. I would be willing to buy this if you still have it. Please let me know Thanks! flyfishingric@gmail.com

Hi Jessica! The table sounds perfect. If it's solid wood, I imagine spray paint will take just fine. If there's a veneer, you may have to do some sanding or check out a different type of paint (maybe the Krylon Fusion would work?). Sounds like a good find; good luck with the project!

I bought a beat up drop leaff table at a garage sale this weeked. It's purpose is for the small TV & Wii that our boys use, which live in the family room. Would you think this would work for the table?

Jackie, the tables were old solid wood ones we found at Goodwill years ago. However, I imagine the spray paint and chalkboard paint would work well on IKEA tables as well.

are the tables from Ikea? I would like to try this on mine!

@maven - really? I rarely get that. Usually, it's, "She looks just like Alicia!" Thanks for the nice pick-me-up!
