Frugal Friday

The girls had this princess vanity that wasn’t being used anymore and I almost took it to the thrift store. I had been searching thrift stores for months looking for a small table to go in my living room. Then it clicked! Just use the princess vanity:

waterpark 014 

I took the mirror off and gave it three coats of spray paint and ended up with this:

table 034

Total cost: $.97 (can of spray paint). So glad I didn’t donate this!

I am linking up to Frugal Friday over at the The Shabby Nest. Check it out!

Oh dear - this 'new' little table is fab! Thanks for the visit to my little blog - monogram would be a wonderful idea --- now I have to find something else to add a monogram to!!

Great job! Now, I would not have thought to transform that into a table. It was hard to see past the Disney princesses. Nice job!

You're kidding, right? That doesn't even look like the same piece of furniture. Great job.
