From Aztec Reject to Funky & Fabulous
An Endtables Revival


Pin It

The Aztec's called. They wanted their furniture back. I obliged them.


These end tables had great "bones" even if their backs were cardboard. I never have understood that. I took all of that cardboard nonsense out.


Covered holes that were undoubtedly, at some point in the past, awesomely bedazzled.


I fell in love with these bottoms. They reminded me of a beehives. Which made me think of flowers....


Which helped me decide what I wanted to do here!


And since my client said, 'I want something in orange!'. I said bye by to these drawers...


Built new ones and put flowers on them to go with the beautiful "beehive" bottoms.


I added a coordinating pattern to the bottoms drawers and some glass knobs on both.


The insides of each cabinet had to be rebuilt in order to accommodate the newly built drawers and a new, wooden back was cut for each table as well. No more cardboard!


I added some flower appliques to tie in the flower theme.



A bit of distressing and that stands out nicely!


And there are those beautiful beehive bottoms again. Nicely distressed.


And two new fun end tables have gone to live with a beautiful orange mirror. I hope they enjoy their new home!



*Please note: these end tables were done for a client. I offer my furniture for sale on my Facebook Fan Page as well as my custom refinishing services. I also offer consultation services. Feel free to contact me for pricing. I will also be offering basic furniture refinishing tutorials on my YouTube channel in the near future so be sure to subscribe.
