Thrift Store Side Table and Cabinet DIY

I found this first table at Goodwill for under $20. It was scratched, and a little worn, so I spray painted it gold to give it a new look, and match the rest of the decor in my dining room. I had been wanting two side tables for a while, but had not had much luck finding anything the right price, and style. I like that this table has the added piece along the bottom, since it really helps with storage.

This next cabinet was purchased for around $25 at Habitat for Humanity. It was just a little too worn to be left unpainted, so I spray painted it gold, also.

Here is the after!

I am so happy with how they both turned out! For now, I am storing a lot of my crystal and clear glass in the cabinet.

The candelabra on top was a $10 find from a thrift store in Amelia, Virginia. I had been wanting one for a long time, so I was thrilled to find this one, and at such a great price, too.

The large crystal vase with the palm trees was a Goodwill find for around $25. The shorter crystal piece was found at the same Amelia thrift store for around $10.

The fruit items were both purchased from Goodwill. I think they will be especially lovely for the holiday season. The candle holder was another Goodwill purchase. I am very happy with that piece, as well.

As you can see, the bottom of this side table is used for storing my cake stands, punch bowls, and a few other items.

Park Lane Glassware by Colony

This glassware was made by "Colony." "Colony" was one of a series of companies that produced glassware in the early 19th Century until the mid-20th Century. Those interested in the history of these companies can find it on various other websites, including Ohio Glass . NOTE: This vintage glassware is not to be confused with Park Lane "full lead crystal" ware by Mikasa . Libertad and I discovered Park Lane glassware at secondhand stores early in our relationship. I believe that some blue glass pieces of it were among my earliest purchases of glassware in San Antonio, Texas, where Libertad and I were married in 2009. For our first Valentine's Day together, in 2008, she took me to a store in Shockoe Bottom, in Richmond, Virginia; I think it was La Diff . I decided to buy a set of four, handblown glass tumblers, allegedly made in Mexico. They have what appear to be drops of blood all over them, blown into the glass. I thought they looked appropriate for V...

It's been forever since I last posted, so I decided to start again in what is my favorite season for decorating. Fall! In this tablescape, I have a plaid tablecloth I recently purchased from Dollar General. I love the addition of the blue in the fall colors of the plaid. It is somewhat unexpected. ' The bright orange, glass pumpkin was a HomeGoods find last month. The wooden board it is on is from Ross. All of these items were around only $10 each! The stack of plates were thrifted. I loved the neutral look of them, and I think they worked well for these setting, even though they have snow flakes on them. And I almost forgot to mention! The cookie is from Walmart bakery!

Pioneer Woman Tablecloth

I recently purchased this beautiful blue floral table lcloth by Pioneer Woman from walmart.com for under $20. I went with the largest one available to make sure that I had enough for my dining room table. I thought id it was too large, I could use the excess fabric to make matching napkins. I'm very happy with the print of this tablecloth, I particularly wanted the beautiful blue and white to showcase my yellow and green lemon plates that I purchased from the Dollar Tree last year. I think the colors and patterns are going to work very well to showcase lots of other dishes and tableware as well. The blue and yellow toile napkins that are on the table are ones that I made from extra scraps of fabric that I had lying around the house. They are not a standard shape and size of napkins but for just me and my family, I don't really care and they worked out just fine.
