Monday Made It-Link up

I'm linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for the Monday Made It!!!

Well, I haven't done or even been to my classroom since school was out (floors are being waxed), so I decided to do a little home project. Of course, I found the idea off of Pinterest and revamped it for my use. I have been wanting a bed for my little Yorkie, Gabby. She sleeps in a bed in the floor near my bed. Although, that works fine, I wanted something a little MORE! So where do I head? Why the thrift store of course!!!! I found a table for $12!!!! SCORE!! If you know me at all, you know how impatient I am. Therefore, I had to get started right away and missed the before pics. The nice hubby I have stepped in and took the pics just before I finished the first coat of paint. I used Annie Sloan chalk paint (Coco was the color). I loved it! There is no sanding, no priming, just painting. I painted two coats on it and then put one coat of wax on it. Very simple and super duper quick. Both of which I absolutely adore!!!!

This is the before that the hubs took as I was painting!
Before the Annie Sloan wax.

After the Annie Sloan wax.The final product with Gabby's bed in it!!! She loves it!
How can you turn down this sweet face? 
Sorry the photo isn't that great. But I found this rug at the same thrift store. I bought it for $15. It was brand new and still in the plastic. I do LOVE a good bargain!! 

What have you made?  Link up to Tara's weekly Monday Made its!Have a great week! Much love and as always ROLL TIDE!!!!
