Difficulty:

Category: Other

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Garden

Style: Retro / Vintage


Materials

paint

What was your inspiration?

Ann Marie's teaching in Drab to Fab. I would have never thought of the red edges without her. LOVE them.

What are you most proud of?

Having changed the plaques from damaged and useless to a decor item I'm proud to display. Turning a 1950s Formica-topped table into a shabby chic triumph!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Definitely choose a contrasting color for edges. Sets off the shabbiness beautifully
