Can I please get a nice loud “Halleluyah?” Because I finally completed my makeover curbside table!
And my secret tabletop design was . . . a Union Jack! (Okay, it’s really more of an homage to the Union Jack, but why quibble about details?)
Here’s a shot from above:
And here’s how adorable the table looks with the sides down.
I will later publish a post with all the nitty-gritty details, (hopefully with better pictures) but I love this table so much that I just had to share it in the here and now.
And by the way, I spent $3.65 on this entire project, which was the cost of a can of spray primer.

And just for fun, the obligatory before picture:
So, what do you think?

LOVE IT! But it’s not a union Jack… because it’s not on a ship (& the spacing is off, you can’t tell which way is up)… but, it’s gorgeous, I love it!
“Homage.” 😉
Katy
It looks fabulous.
It looks fantastic! I love the colours!
Love it!
I adore it!
This is my favorite fix-it-up project of yours I’ve ever seen! Totally awesome!
Thank you, it’s my favorite as well!
Katy
Bravo. Well done. I am inspired!
“Halleluyah!”
Love it with the sides down, love it with the sides up! Good job.
Thank you! It coordinates with my logo. 😉
Katy
Looks great!
I’ll have to admit that I kinda cringed as I scrolled down past those lovely serene greens just waiting for the SCREAMING primary colors of the Union Jack to appear and disrupt things, and then was so pleasantly surprised. Nice job!
No red, white and blue colors in my house! Well, except for the kitchen, where I have an adorable vintage Union Jack tray up on a wall.
Katy
Lovely!
Halleluyah!! I love finding the beauty hidden in a curbside find. While they may not cost much to restore it is time consuming, but much fun getting to the finished project. Definitely a much improved piece of furniture.
Yes it was time consuming, but it was mostly a few hours here and a few hours there. Plus the process was way more entertaining to me than a movie or drinks out with the girls. 😉

Ha Ha! I knew it!!!!! 🙂 Love the colors. Looks awesome!!
You’re clairvoyant!
Katy
Yay! So much better than before.
Thank you, it was super fun to make!
Katy
I love the design and the colors! Gorgeous!
Looks great!
Very nice– I like the colors….I’m in a rut—I seem to paint all my furniture finds black…..
That little table was so cute, it deserved to be rescued. And you did so beautifully. I was rather expecting red white & blue, but your chosen colour scheme goes beautifully with the rest of your decor. Well done!
Great transformation of a free find! Good job Katy!
Very fun! Love the colors you chose!
Love. Love. Love. My favorite project of yours thus far.
It turned out great! Love the colors.
Thanks, I had fun mixing my own colors from all my basement stash.

You did us Brits proud Katy. What a fabulous table! Pop that in a vintage shop in London and you’d get back 100 times what it cost! Now that’s what I call ‘appreciation’!
(only one problem – am now feeling inspiring to start furniture projects… oh-oh!)
If you free handed those straight lines I’m jealous.
What?! That would be insane. I used painter’s tape, (which I cut length-wise to make it last twice as long.)
Katy
Beautiful job; hard to believe it’s the same table. Love the colour!
Great job!!
