omg--how adorable is that?!

You're right, that is one happy little bench! Enjoy!

I have one of those, I was thinking of getting rid of it. You've inspired me!

Love it!

who knew how cute that could be??? Luckily you did! Love the color and the fabric you chose.

I love to see Befores and Afters like this. Love your vision and your wonderful new table, Franksmom!!!

Amazing transformation. Love it!

Can we see it in your bright craft room?

My grandmother had one -- I love it, blue and all!

How do you intend to use it? I always see cute telephone tables in my local classifieds and wonder how they'd be used now that phone habits have changed as technology has progressed. I liked it before but I love the blue and upholstery now. Beautiful!

DH's grandmother had one of these. I would have loved to inherit it, but alas I think it went to charity. I have the cutest picture of my DD when she was under 2, sitting on this just blabbering away. Cutest picture! She's now 45!

Love it! Especially that the fabric flowers echo that very unique cutout shape.

That came out great! Love the blue.

So the phone company left new phone books on my porch the other day...do you want them? Just kidding.

WOW! I absolutely love it. I have often considered picking one up, but now I think I MUST have one!

I actually saw one for sale in an antique store this week and it was labeled "Vanity Stool". It cracked me up!

fantastic !

Darn. I got rid of my old telephone table. It didn't have a seat to it, just the place for a phone and shelf for the phone book.

Your's is fantastic! I never would have thought about painting it such a beautifully bright color!

Wonderful!

It's a phone table, for sure. Phone went on the top shelf, and you'd put the phone book underneath.

Love the blue!

Thanks so much!

My craft room is going to have a vintage/retro vibe. I actually have an "inspiration piece", my Mom's old cannister set from the '50's:

The room already has a vintage style corded black phone, so now I can move the phone off of my desk. I actually use phonebooks, too, as old-school as that is.

No pics of the room yet. It's a bit of a disaster right now, and this is the first of several pieces that need a makeover. I'm still planning out paint color/distribution. I want it to be bright and cheerful, but that yellow/red/blue combo can get out of hand pretty quickly. I'm also planning a gallery wall with all of my art and pics that don't "go" anywhere else. The whole thing has potential to turn out like Pee Wee's Playhouse. Or it could be a very freeing experiment in color and a rather loose set of rules.

Very fun and cute!

Oh, I love it! What a transformation! Can I have it?
