Hi @alanasfurniture,
What an incredible transformation — you've done an amazing job breathing new life into that hallway table! The attention to detail with the stencilling and wallpaper-lined drawers really takes it to the next level. It’s inspiring to see how a bit of creativity and the right tools can turn a free find into something truly stunning.
Thanks so much for sharing your project with the community!
