Upcycled Funky Table

I am back this week with my project for Altered Eclectics challenge for May. I decided to upcycle an old side table I was given.  It was one of those tables that you hide under a tablecloth  that usually matched your bedspread.  I think they were popular in the 70's. 

This is what I started with.

My new funky outdoor table

I used a stencil for the center of the table with sharpies, ink and paint.I then masked the outside edge with round labels and  page re-enforcements and painted it with Acrylic paint. 

 

I painted, stenciled and free hand drew a different pattern on each side of each leg of the table. 

It's New Home
