My kids have had it out playing games on it ever since Grandma and Grandpa were visiting. My daughter was picking at the top and of course I scolded her and told her not to pick anymore. Then I got an idea."Paris, want to go to Corn Wagon?" (it's one of her favorite places to go- seriously)
I picked up some Amy Butler laminated fabric and set to work. Only a couple hours later and I had this:
It only took that long because I had to wait for the spray paint to dry. I didn't even have to buy any- I had some that matched already!All that old table needed was a little "LOVE"
Now I just have to do the chairs!

i spent my saturday sewing a new bag {that i love}... but i also love this table... and might just make over my card table too!! great idea! ;-)
Spent Saturday quilting with the Austin Modern Quilt Guild. It was great!!
Aaaaand I LOVE this card table. I may have to hunt the craigslist ads for old card tables. Just so I can make one of these!!
Wowow!! That's so gorgeous! Did the top just pop off and back on, or did you have to problem solve?
I spent mine enjoying the rare sun that we had. I absolutely love that table. That's the best idea. I need to do that to my table and chairs too.
I love that! It came out great- looks fantastic. I spent my Saturday morning working, but spent the afternoon snuggling with my son.
Organizing my quilt room and loaded a quilt on my machine. No hockey to distract me!
Ok, that's just freaking adorable. I HATE having to get out the card table, but that would be just wonderful to show off!
What a great idea. I have an old card table around here and that's just what it needs to bring it back to life. Thank you for the inspiration.
I think the fact that you had all that on hand is the best part!
Fantastic redo. I have a ratty table that could use a make-over.
Thanks for sharing.
I spent my Saturday visiting with my parents. I love what you did with the table...awesome.
Love it! I went to my son's graduation on Sat.
This looks great. Did you have to take the topper off?
nouLove it! what a great makeover! wish we had a shop that sold laminate here. (mauh) Liz
That makes me want a card table!
Well now that table looks fabulous and fun, but would be the dickens to work a puzzle on LOL. I have a question about sewing laminates, what type and size of sewing machine needle would you recommend? Thanks
Ciao
