Every now and again I stumble across a bargain! This sure was the case for this old telephone table. It was sitting underneath a larger table at my local thrift shop, looking all lonesome.

Thank goodness I did otherwise this would have been a missed opportunity to give this little gal a new lease on life.

Supplies needed:

 

Step 1 –  Mix up your milk paint and let it sit while you give the entire piece of furniture a sand to remove any shine.

Step 2 – Start applying the milk paint to your piece of furniture. In the case of this telephone table, I gave it 2 coats of paint letting it dry in between each coat. Once completely dry sand accordingly and apply wax to seal but NOT over the top of the table. Just the legs, drawer front and base 🙂

Step 3 – Taking your mod podge cover the whole of the top of the table. Moving quickly starting at the top adhere the music sheet and work your way to the bottom rubbing to make sure that the music sheet sticks. Then using an old store card or bank card move in a circular motion to remove any air bubbles. Start in the centre and work your way out to the edges. Apply another coat of mod podge to seal. Let this dry overnight and then using the tough coat apply over the music sheet for extra durability. Add your drawer pull.

Happy painting!
