I have been hunting for a new side table for what seems like
f.o.r.e.v.e.r! I gave up after awhile figuring I would bump into the right one eventually. Well, I finally found a winner! I ran into
Goodwill to see if a dresser was still there, but found this instead! It was $3.95, so I had to pick it up! Clearly, with deals like this,
Goodwill has become favorite of this Dutch girl in recent months.

I sanded it down some, put a few coats of spray paint primer on, and then added two coats of color. I had leftover paint from another project, so our "new" table is now "Celery Sticks" green by Glidden. |

Jon helped by adding new holes for the knob. |
