I’ve been hunting and searching for a console table for quite some time now.  But nothing I’ve found has fit into my $20-$30 budget.  Imagine that!  Today, I was out and about with a friend and we went to three nearby home consignment stores.  It kind of felt like the three little bears story…

The first consignment store was huge with big scary price tags.

The second consignment store was very small and smelly and didn’t even have what I was looking for.

And the third consignment store was just right and we found my little table in a corner with a price tag that read: $29.

Did you like that story?  I think I had a better ending than Goldilocks.  Especially after I went to Lowes and bought a bottle of yellow spray paint and then to Hobby Lobby where their specialty knobs and pulls were 50% off.  I could stomp on my own foot for not taking any before pictures.  They would have been kind of sad.  But check out my little table that could now!

 

 

You just don’t find deals like this every day!  Now it’s about time to paint these poor, drab walls.  I’m thinking a soft  gray with this fabric on the windows:

Well, one can dream, right?
