If you want to see what you can do with her paint, she has a youtube channel as well. I was pretty amazed at how easily this paint was able to transform this table into something useful and purposeful again. <br /><br />I need to have an indoor greenhouse here, because our growing season is so short. It helps to give plants a head start. <br /><br />Appreciate your visit, and kind comments. I pray you have a blessed Easter!

It is so much appreciated! <br /><br />I am really enjoying my little table, it is just the perfect height to place drinks on, and it has the added bonus storage too! The Amy Howard paint is really awesome - you can go to her youtube channel to see her techniques, and different things that you can do with the paint. Her paint is only available at Ace Hardware stores. I was happy that it did not take very long, and did not require any extra work, other than just degreasing/cleaning the piece before getting started. <br /><br />Yes, you have great eyes, there are some very special pieces on the shelf, and they have been a sweet blessing that I've enjoyed :) My teacup package got mailed off and now I am waiting to receive mine, such fun and delight! <br /><br />Yes, the joy of planting is abounding, lol! I love it! Hope you are having a lovely week, and may the Lord bless your Easter!
