I have been looking for a small piece of furniture that needs a little TLC to fix up this summer. (As a substitute and future teacher I have a lot of extra time in the summer.) Anyway... I began looking earlier this spring at all of the estate sales, garage sales, and antique stores I walked into. I was not having any luck... it is the curse of looking for a specific item. And I was even pretty broad with what I was looking for but still couldn't find the right piece.
Just when I had kinda given up for the summer I spent the day shopping with my mom. Yep someone went with me on this trip, I didn't even have to do it alone. As we were finishing up our trip for the day I spotted the perfect piece of furniture.

Yes indeed this is a mid-century phone table! I absolutely love it! And it is in good enough condition that it won't take too long to fix up but still needs a little bit of love. In my next blog post I will show how I fixed up this piece to be one of a kind. It will be a little bit before I post that, but you can be sure to look for it. And please comment if you have any wonderful ideas about the table. I may like the idea enough to use it for myself, giving you some credit of course. I will let you know what I did and include steps to refurbishing and reviving older pieces that you just love but want to update just a little.
Have you started your refurbishing yet? Are there some pictures that are forthcoming? Come on Katie don't leave us hanging!
