Beautiful Thrift Store Heart Table Makeover

Furniture

Do you love thrift store finds? I found this amazing heart table at Manna Thrift Store in Grand Lake, CO. (Hi Frank) It just needed a little love and face lift so I upcycled it with a little paint, glaze, and wall sticker.

Here is the original table. The wood on top was in super shape, but the bottom needed a little help.

I have to send a huge thanks to Texas Canvas Wares for this amazing Apron!  I have used it for so many projects already and this was one of them (you can see me wearing it in the pictures above).  It’s so very durable, great for all kinds of projects, has pockets, adjustable straps, tool holders, etc.  Even a pocket for your phone with strap (this helps me when I’m taking photos or videos in action).  It’s a fantastic quality apron if you are needing one.  You can find it here – Waxed Canvas Heavy Duty Work Apron With Pockets – Deluxe Edition – with Quick Release Buckle Adjustable up to XXL for Men and Women

    Hi Chaz,
    You sound upbeat this morning and doing well. Orthopedic surgery is never easy and using crutches is the pits. Happy to hear your recovery is going so well. Love the heart table, good job. Take care.
