Telephone Table

I searched high and low for a table that I liked for my hallway and after many a month searching and trawling both the shops and the internet I decided to get creative!  I took myself off to the local charity shop and found this velvet beauty!!

Although I'm loving the velvet trend at the moment this little fella was looking slightly tired and more than a little worse for wear!

SO... after sanding it down, I painted it matt grey and bought some thick grey upholstery fabric and tackled my first ever re-uholstery project!  After slaving away, hand sewing my own buttons, I've since learned of many simpler ways of re-coverring buttons that I'll remember for the next project!!
