A Really Disgusting Side Table Makeover

I agree with Lisa: this side table was disgusting. And not for the reason you might think. Yes, the finish needed some serious TLC, but that was nothing in the cootie department. Let’s run through the list. Paper ‘stuck’ onto the top, wads and wads of gum stuck under the top edge, a half-eaten King Size Reece’s candy bar and two blush-inducing pornographic pictures stuffed behind the drawer. With a healthy dose of Goo Gone and intrepidity, Lisa de-cootie-fied the table and finished it in a lovely, clean, and innocent yellow. This is what the table looks like now:

The lesson here? For thrifters, disgusting never gets in the way of a good makeover. Visit Before Meets After to read more about the project and to see some disgusting ‘before’ pictures.
