The Smitty Baby Table Transformation

You remember the 40 week Pregnancy in 90 Seconds Don't you? Well Meridith Smith has been hard at work (sans video camera) on a terrific table transformation. The results are a breath of fresh air for this pint size set. Results after the jump...

 
 

Meredith made the all transformation happen with a little white paint and some help from a bit of IKEA fabric. She made sure to sand and prime it before it's final coat of white. The results are fresh, clean and just perfect for this small space in which to have a meal or an arts and crafts project. Now all we have to do is get ourselves invited over for some snacks a la apple.

Thanks Meredith!

Oh my gosh, soooo much better! I love those tiny cushions. I was planning on getting that fabric for my son who is obsessed with the Matterhorn, I can't wait to get my hands on it! It looks so much better in "real life" than on their website.
