Table With A Surprise

 I found this cute little table on a recent family trip to the mountains of North Carolina and just had to bring him home with me.  I love how the legs aren't straight but angle out a little.
 
 

The table was painted with two coats of Old Ochre Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and the sides and inside of the drawer were painted with Graphite.  I used clear wax only and lightly distressed the table.


I decided to keep the original hardware and applied a little wax to the knobs also to brighten them up .



The little surpise is inside the drawer.  One of my favorite thrift shops was giving away (yes, free!) old sheet music.  Of course, I took it all off of their hands!   I applied one of the pages to the bottom of the drawer with Mod Podge then applied several coats to the top to seal it.  I like how the music sheet matches the Old Ochre and Graphite colors.  Whether you're a music lover or not, using sheet music to line drawers or to cover drawer fronts is a great way to add a little extra surprise to your furniture piece.
