I’m sure you all remember this table!
This sofa console table is the first project I made from half of that table (pictured above).
This repurposed crib table is another project I made using the other half (drop down section).
This is the part that was left. I sanded the finish off the top like I did on the other 2 projects. I removed the hardware that was meant to hold the drop down part in place. I used some spray paint primer on the entire thing. I then used some cheapo black spray paint, and then topped it off with some Rustoleum semi-gloss spray paint.
I also wire brushed the metal claw feet and spray painted them.
I love the look of a beautiful black table, I just don’t like dusting them.
I would love to keep this table, but I have no place to put it. 🙁 In this picture it is sitting to the right of my media center, just so I could take a picture of it. It is of course just leaning against the wall. In it’s permanent home it will have to be set on or screwed to a cleat on the wall.
So, here’s the big question… do you have a favorite? Of the three tables I was able to make from that one wonky table?

You are the queen of repurposing! Your tables look amazing! I am super impressed! Love the green! Would love to have you stop by the Sunday Showcase Party if you get a chance ~ Hope you are enjoying your weekend! You did a fabulous job {on all of these!}
I am new and from the show and share page! I want the teal table!!! Can you give a tutorial on how you painted it!!??!! You are super talented! Wow! Great idea!
Oh wow! That you made three BEAUTIFUL tables out of one old beat-up is increadible! Wow wow wow.
It’s hard to pick a fav, I’d take them all! I think, though, that the turquoise table is the one I’d pick if I had to choose. It’s lovely!
Kudos to you for making them all so beautiful!
Wow, I’m picking my jaw up off the floor, you just amaze me! I love the green and the black one equally! I can’t believe what you got out of that one table!
I just want to follow you around…and get ideas.
That is a whole lot of transforming! I think they’re all fabulous but love, love, love the turquoise one. I still am reeling that you got 3 tables from 1! Great job, Theresa

I do love them all but I like the third one the best. I have an affinity for pedestals lately. And that one is just so dainty. And I do LOVES me some black.
THREE tables out of one? You Raw-ock!! I love the black as well, yet hate the way the dust collects too =( They are all so different, I’d have done the same thing 3 times, LOL!!
Love the second one with the blue paint.
You sure got alot out of 1 table.
Wow, wait to get your miles out of 1 wonky table. I love them all, but the blue is my favorite, the color speaks to me!
Great job….I invited you to play a game.Trish
Gail thanks so much for following my blog and leaving a comment! I am so flattered! I am starting up another one that is just about projects and such, that way our family blog doesn’t get taken over by my hobbies! We are so excited to head to Nashville, I’m glad your daughter likes it so much!
They are all amazing but I love the teal one! It’s absolutely darling! Good work!
i love it! what a great use for an old table… and i am loving the shiny black!
Are you kidding me?? You are so smart! I love the turquoise table, but I have a soft spot for blue.
You always have such great vision and execution. You are very inspiring. I love all of the tables. Time for me to head to Craigslist and see what I can find.
wow, 3 tables from one! That is crazy! {in a good way} and they all look so awesome too! My fav is the blue one, but that black table is a close 2nd!
That’s a really difficult question. I really love them all. Seriously! But, if I had to choose one, I would pick the last one in black. Just gorgeous!
gail,
like most have said, it’s hard to choose just one! they are all so unique and beautiful. you rock when it comes to repurposing furniture. i also want to be just like you when i grow up!
i think my fav is the aqua..cuz it reminds me of the beach and i LOVE the beach! 😉
judi 😉
Still can’t believe you got all that goodness from one table, I mean – WOW!
My faves, in order:
1. The turquoise with the crib spindles, of course! I’m obsessed with that table!
2. Love the black one, I would love it, and hug it, dust it every day, and call it George.
3. I just adore the treatment that you did to the base on this one, what an eye catcher!
Oh, that was fun! 😉
Honey, you are amazing! I love all three! I couldn’t pick if I had to! Well, except maybe I’d pick you for my neighbor!!! 😉
Black is my absolute favorite color on furniture…..but after having several pieces in my house I hate owning it. Like you I hate dusting it. I never have been a aqua/turquoise kind of person but I had to wipe away the drool on this one! I think I have been converted. I must paint something this color!!!!!!
They are ALL great, but if you were going to let me pick one for myself (hint) 😉 …..I would choose the crib leg table, it’s so cute!
PS. do you need my address it ship it?
lol

I totally love the first one.. I think it’s the dark rich colours. I don’t know when I’d open and extend it.. but.. I love it. They are all so different and rad.
Keep on bloggin! Love yours lots!
Cheers,
Sarah
I bought a table like this one ages ago during the building process of our current home with the intent of doing just what you did in the second photo for our main entry. Never happened. It’s still waiting in the corner of our basement/woodwork shop to be re-purposed. So many projects, so little time. I do enjoy your projects. In fact so much so that I want to be you when I grow up. ;^) Really I do get things done, just not blogged them yet! I’m getting closer though. You are certainly an inspiration. Thanks. ~Becky <><
