While driving by one of our local antique shops a few weeks ago, I spotted this cute little table outside in the front of the store. Made a quick u-turn (thank goodness there was no cops around) and went to check it out. Don't mind our deck, this was before I stained it.
Taking a closer look at the table you can see it was in pretty bad shape, but I had a vision and for $20 it came home with me.
Surprisingly I didn't whip out the paint, instead I used this...
And turned it into this...
...and that's the new painting that I just purchased from Linsey over @ The Farmhouse Porch
Linsey is an AMAZING artist and she has more of her beautiful paintings for sale on her blog.
I just love my new painting! This one is called "Evening Clearing"
Some night shots.
Hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!!
Have a great week!

Hi Martina! Oh, I can't believe your little table turned out so beautifully with just the stain. It looks great. Love how you've dressed her too. The painting is very lovely.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Marting, that table has such a cute shape. What a find. Love the painting and the lamp.
Love your little table find....Your painting is beautiful!
What a sweet little table. I love it stained! xo Diana

Your little table looks like a very nice antique now! I know that took more work than just painting it. Sometimes you just need the warmth of real wood in a room. I didn't know that Linsey was an artist. Such a pretty painting! Looks like it found a nice home at your house.
Martina I am in love with your table!!! Oh my you are truly lucky to own one of Linseys paintings!! I hope to own one one day as well. She actually lives just around the corner from me. We met over at Savvy Southern Style during WOW one week.
Absolutely gorgeous Martina! Love the old wood look and that painting is beautiful.

What a cute table and I am glad that you stained it, as it looks beautiful with the wood stained....I will have to pop over and see the beautiful art!
Have a wonderful week!
Ahhh! The little painting looks so at home in its new home! I cant believe how beautifully your wall color partners with it. And the table is gorgeous! It's the perfect size. I'm always looking for little side tables like that and I never find any that cute. I'm so thrilled you love it, and even more thrilled that it went to a friend.

That table turned out wonderful! Love the painting. I am going over to check her out.
I do believe I am in shock....no paint???? The table looks fantastic...I love the deep wood color!
Wow Martina,
What a transformation on that cute lil table. Love how it looks now,
and love how you accessorized it as well. beautiful painting too!

Hi Martina,

The table looks great, Martina! I thought I recognized that painting as one of Linsey's. I love her work, and that piece looks perfect on your newly restored table. Enjoy!
Your new little table is so pretty! I love painted furniture too, but sometimes wood is best. Your painting is bautiful! I have to go over and take a look at them.
The table looks wonderful Martina.
I love the painting and will definitely visit Linsey.
I really love the new side table. I think you made the right decision in adding some nourishing stain to the wood. It turned out perfect, and the painting fits right in.
Martina..I don't blame you..I'd have done a quick U turn too for that cutie. The table is darling and "she" has such cute legs. LOVE your vignette! I'm off to see Linsey's blog and check out her paintings.
Lovely table! The stain is perfect. That painting is beautiful, as is the whole vignette. I love that lamp!
Have a great week!
such a sweet table, and I love your new painting!
Gorgeous vignette, Martina!
I hope the seller doesn't see this post or they will be kicking themselves for selling this newly revived beauty!
Amazing job you did~
Love the painting too.

Hi Martina, That looks like a sturdy little table! I've used that Minwax stain and seal and was quite pleased with the results! Love that painting!
Sometimes, it is nice to have stained wood pieces, instead of so much painted stuff! Your little table looks lovely and it is a nice place to feature your new painting. :-) Sue
I love your cute table!! The stain looks perfect. I love your vignette too!!

Great job on the table! That's right we don't have to paint everything. And I thought I recognized that gorgeous painting. Good choice, I own several of Linsey's paintings, 4 so far.
Love it, Martina! Your vignette is so pretty! xo ~Liz
