Pretty Yellow Table (aka the most disgusting furniture makeover ever!)

I have to start by showing you this sweet little yellow table.

With its beautiful detailed legs. 

And sweet ceramic knob.

But this table started out nowhere near sweet. And I had no idea when I bought it. 

Don't you just HATE when that happens??

There was the obvious wet paper stuck to the top dilemma. 

I used Goo Gone and my trusty Purdy 5 in 1 tool to scrape it off.

But it got worse.

As I was picking up the table to move it, I felt something ooey and gooey. 

Enter gum.

It was stuck under ever side of this table, and on the underside of the shelf.

Dis.gusting. 

I used Goo Gone and my Purdy tool again (that thing is great for everything!)

Then I noticed the drawer wasn't shutting correctly. I couldn't even get it off the track. I could tell there was something behind it. 

20 minutes later I dug all of this out from behind the drawer. 

Not in the drawer. BEHIND the drawer. 

Yes, that's a half eaten King Size Reece's, a world map, a candle and lighter, a trading card, a plastic bag with screws, and a baseball line up.

There were also 2 very disturbing printouts of some ladies wearing.....well nothing. I won't go into details (because my blog would be reported for obscene content) but please know I was blushing like CRAZ-YYYY when I found them.

So from all of this, I pretty sure this table belonged to some hormone crazy teenage who chewed a lot of gum. LOTS.

So I felt the need to make this table extra sweet (and bleach my hands after).

 

Here's the Before Meets After

It's for sale in the store if you're interested.

Who wouldn't want to own a piece with so much....errrr.... History???
