I'm at it again. This is a beautiful small table. It was antique green to begin with. I sanded down to distress even more and added Duck Egg Chalk Paint, distressed and waxed. It is really beautiful. Looks ever better in person!

Canton Treasures
Totally enjoyed a trip to Canton with a wonderful friend. Was away from home for 5 beautiful days. We stayed at my husband's relatives and I got to see several of them. In fact, 7 of the girls joined us for Saturday shopping. Thank goodness I took my Cargo trailer. It was filled with lots of treasures along with the back of my truck. Have lots of ideas and plans to paint, paint, paint. Hope I will make the time to get them done.
My biggest bargain as a vanity, bench, dresser and bed frame for $150. Yes, for the whole set. Can't wait to get my paintbrush on this find..
I purchased 2 more vanities, another dresser, 4 stools, 4 end tables, 6 child's step stools, a dry sink, headboard and footboard to make me a beautiful bench, wooden ladder, coal bucket, watering can, 2 washboards (planning to use as legs to a table), child's rocking chair, doll high chai, gourds and 3 cute small tables.
This should keep me busy for a long while!!!!
Look for before and after pictgures to follow!!!
