It was love at first sight! I was in one of my favorite stores - GW Boutique (GoodWill ha ha) – and I saw it. A little end table that someone had primed and painted pink. I could just picture this table with a mosaic top and sitting at my bedside. I dragged it to the register and paid for it.
I also found some other things – some rose patterned dishes to break up, a baby dress I could not resist (it is so cute!), and a few books. Always books. I lugged the table up the steps to my workshop (the front porch) and started placing tiles.
You FIARowers have got to love this little corner with Peter Rabbit. Gotta have some whimsy! It took a couple of hours to place everything and then about another hour to adhere every piece into place with a mixture of mortar and glue. But the finished top is gorgeous! I am not sure if I will grout this in white or pink.
I will be sure and post pictures of the table when it’s done! Do you think I should do the grout in white or pink?

It’s beautiful, Lynn, and I vote for white grout, but I’m classic that way. I love the mosaics…makes me wish I had some time to do it again.
Thank you, Jill. I love doing them too! It is so relaxing. Now that my baby is nearly 9, I am having more time for things like this. Lynn ~:-D
[...] You can see the mix-match of various fabrics and colors, but I think it’s all rather country when put together. Besides, I don’t have the money to do anything except love what I have and upgrade a little at the time. That’s quite the fun way to do it, anyway. My pink bedside table, if you’ve not seen it before, has this top. (For more on how it was made, see this post.) [...]
