Picnic Table Redo!

While scanning thru potential DIYs for the house this year I stumbled across this gem from Caroline's Crafty Corner!
We were gifted a Little Tikes table 4 years ago now from a PCSing family back in Wyoming. It was well loved, but still in great shape! It's been a favorite of the monsters, but has definitely been getting dingier as time has worn on.
TADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So much better, right?

Following Caroline's post I took apart our table, painted the sides, & stapled fabric and vinyl on top of the table and seats. & yes, it was really that easy! Budget friendly too, as all my expenses (2 cans of plastics paint & 1.5 yards each of cotton fabric & 006 vinyl) totaled in just under $20!
The redo is a hit & perfect timing too...Gwen will soon be using it as her desk when homeschooling starts this fall!
