a perfectly charming little table...

I found the perfect little table at Goodwill for little miss.
Her room is in the works, as well as every other room in our home. This is her bedding and curtains (Simply Shabby Chic from Target of course). I LOVE the color pallet. I decided to bring in another fabric when working with this table. It ties into the bedding perfectly and looks so cute with the table. Here's the supplies I used:
AND here's how the table turned out.
Doesn't the fabric look so charming?!!!
We're not exactly sure how we will dress her up but here are a few of our favorite things: aqua mason jars, PINK Flowers, candles and horses. Little miss has started a fun collection thanks to a great uncle from Chicago (thanks Andy!).
We'll figure it out one of these days. I'm just thrilled with how the table looks. It's one of those rare projects that turn out just how you had pictured it in your mind.
To support little miss A's dream of horses, I've started gathering art work for the vintage frames I've been collecting. I bought this FABULOUS black and white photo from Laura Will's Photography (thanks so much Laura... it's beautiful!) Here's how it looks with the vintage frame.

I couldn't help playing around with the table, pretending it was mine.
But the little lady has informed me that it is NOT mine and it is in fact the perfect bedside table for her. I think she's right. It really is such a sweet and charming little table.

Hi Mimi,

All I can say is "Awesome Job Girlfriend". That came out absolutely gorgeous and it looks even prettier all decorated. I love the light blue and pink palette together too. I'm getting ready to paint my pink kitchen over in Robin's Egg blue. Yikes.... I hope I like it as much as I like my pink walls. I think it will be pretty having blue walls with cream and pink accents. A nice spring change of color.

Thank you for sharing and inspiring me today.
