{and the "After" of Yet another Curbside Treasure!...}

Earlier this week I posted the "before" of my curbside treasure. 

 With a vision and a little elbow grease I turned it into a garden station!  

What I used: 
 lambs wool paint by SW
Ralph Lauren glaze
 black chalkboard paint
new casters from Walmart 
hooks form Hobby Lobby

I had everything except the casters....so, I spent a total of $6 and change!




excuse the messy writing! :) i need the chalkboard pens!





this is the little French wire basket w/ tiny terra-cotta pots I bought at Round Top a couple of weeks 

ago...aren't' they precious!  Perfect for succulents...



and below is what it looked like before!


Have a beautiful weekend!

This is great! I love the chalkboard paint. I have always wanted a garden table - and this is totally doable. Thanks for sharing.

I love it! This bench is so rustic I love it! I like everything you have hanging off the side and the blackboard paint is the best!
