Patterned Sofa Table

Hey there Hometalk Friends! Today I'm sharing the makeover of a sofa table as part of my March Madness, 31 Thrifty Makeovers in 31 Days Series. I found this at a yard sale in my neighborhood last Spring for $10:


And gave it a whole new look:

My original plan was to stain the top and paint the base, but when I sanded the top, I discovered it was not real wood...bummer.

The top had a pattern in it though, so I decided to use that as a guide to tape off a fun pattern.

I used Frogtape to tape the outer edges.

Then smaller Frogtape for the pattern...

For the base I used Annie Sloan French Linen chalk paint, 3 parts mixed with one part white to lighten it a bit. Then Pure white for the stripes.

I love it against the white slipcovers.
