West Elm Inspired Sofa Table Project

By

Inspired by West Elm

It’s themed furniture day! Today’s theme is “Knockoff” or “Inspired By”. My makeover was inspired by a mid-century style nightstand I spotted on West Elm.

Super easy project adding just a bit of paint and cleaning up the original finish. Win-Win for both sides of the painted furniture issue!

I really like the white paint and wood two-tone finish….so fresh and clean.

My project table is not mid-century modern but it’s what I had to work with and it needed a makeover.

This is the top of the table. I either had to paint the top or refinish it. No question about what I was going to do.

one coat of paint

I used Reclaim paint in off-white. The photo above shows the table with one coat of paint.

There were just a few minor scratches and dings on the legs, shelf, and frame of the table. I took care of those easily with a furniture marker and Howard’s feed n’ wax.

That white perked the table right up. I know this table has a modern vibe but I had to use a few of my junky, rusty, treasures to stage the photo. That’s just me.

  1. I totally love your two-toned table. It’s the perfect intersection of mid-century and farmhouse. And your rusty staging teasures give it that great Petticoat Junktion charm. Another fab makeover!!! Susie from The Chelsea Project

  2. Love the new look and even more with the items you staged it with Kathy! Your piece is perfect for this look too. I have that Howards product too, I should pull it out if it will make my furniture look as good as yours!

  6. Looks great! I was curious about the Reclaim paint and checked it out. I think the Reclaim Buttercream paint is just what I have been looking for to redo my small kitchen table. Double thank yous fur this post!

  9. Wood and paint mixed like this is one of my very favorite kinds of furniture! I love your mix of old and new. You took a beautiful piece and made it perfect for you, that is inspiring!

  12. A note on the styling: that brown box was too bulky and especially too brown. The photo would have looked more interesting with a touch of virtually any color: a pop of red, or orange, or blue…

  15. That is one gorgeous, good-lookin’ table! I love the contrast between the polished wood and the white drawers. It is one of my faves you’ve shared. You get a “10” for effort and a “10+” for beauty!

  19. Your table turned out beautifully! I love the pop of white. Thanks for sharing your makeover with us at Merry Monday this week!
