The Apple Table

This is kind of a funny story. I bought this desk at a garage sale for $5.00. It was painted white with an apple print contact paper on the top. When Sammy helped me get it off the car, he called it the Apple Table. So whenever I'd bring up the topic of the desk, he'd say "oh, you mean the Apple Table?".
Well I finally finished the desk. It has a classic brown look and the only thing I changed was the handle. I think it's perfect! A friend of mine bought it from me so the Apple Table will be leaving today.

I know these pictures are rather blurry but it's the best I could do before I got it ready for her to take home.

Good bye Apple Table. I had fun bringing you to life.

Love it!! I'm pretty sure both the table (and your friend) are very happy that there's no longer an apple in sight. Great makeover!!

Your table is so much better! Why on Earth cover such a gem with contact paper?
