Grandpa’s Nightstand Goes Shabby Chic

This little side table sat next to the bedside of Jessica’s grandpa for years. It was worn and shabby, but to Jessica the nightstand was a keepsake. See how she revived it at Live Randomly Simple.

To give the table a new look, Jessica started by removing the door, hinges, and back of the piece. She replaced the back with chicken wire to add some rustic style. She used robin’s egg blue chalk paint to cover the dated finish, and distressed it with sandpaper. I love the way Jessica styled the side table once it was finished!
