“I wanted a picnic table for the kids so badly, but I did not want to pay for it,” confesses Beth of Pickles In My Tea and In My Soup. ”Luckily, the stars all aligned and I found one for free on Freecycle.”

Margaret blogs over at Moving Forward. Recently, a friend gave her a glass-topped coffee table that had been picked up from the side of the road.

Elizabeth of Southern Color found this table in the dumpster at her apartments. It had some damage to the top of it but overall it was in good condition.

At Nalle’s House, Nalle loves the classic lines of Aalto stools, and has been hoping to add a few to her home. ”Unfortunately, splurging on the stools wasn’t in the budget at the moment,” she confesses. ”My parents did, however, have a few very beat up knockoff Aalto stools. They were the stools that we used in our kitchen when I was growing up.”

At Twelve0Eight, Tanya had a dining table that had seen better days but had a lot of memories. As fun as it would be to shop for a new table, she wasn’t ready yet to let the old one go.

Shanna of Restoration Redoux has another amazing transformation to share. This one started with an interesting table she found that was in really bad shape. It was filthy and wobbly, but had a carved and painted top that almost looked like something you’d hang on the wall.

Allison loves sharing her garage sale finds and decorating projects at Slippers By Day. Recently, she scored a great find at a garage sale: this vintage record stand.

Oksana of A Sparrow’s Haven is an oil painter. She’d been scouting for the perfect weathered barn to paint, and thought she’d found just the right one. But when she went back to the site with her paints, the barn was gone! Unfortunately for Okasana’s painting, the barn had been bulldozed. Fortunately for her home decor needs, the farmer told her she could take away some of the wood.
