The Beauty of Craig's list

See here table...
This is a find {by Spence} off craigslist. It was a smacking deal. 50 dollar deal. Spencer spruced it up into our little dream table... and well he should go into business. I dream something up, or find a picture of something and show it to him and it is done. Every day when I scrub down the table after breakfast I love Spencer even more. He brings so much beauty to everything he touches.

An evolution of a table:
The table when we got it was perfect... the stain was amazing - but we sanded it down anyway - we had big ole plans. There was a chunk taken out of the top and a crack but spence fixed it up.

Look at those feet. Sometimes I think people selling things in Craigslist are pretty dumb.
Spray down.

That looks AMAZING and I am totally inspired. I've been dying for a new round dining room table, but now I'm thinking I won't be hitting the furniture stores to find one!

I love that!
I too bought a table similar to that a few weeks ago (but yours is way cooler) and painted it navy. Funny.
