Shabby Chic again! Cake Prep table.

Well, I have spent all day on this project and I am so pleased with it! This is my little cake preparation table, and again the look is very shabby chic.








The little table was unfinished when I got it, and I had a lovely time painting it in pale blue with a white top, sanding it back and distressing and aging it.





The little cake is sitting on a pretty heart shaped trivet (actually, it is some kind of embellishment from the scrapbooking shop - I attached little beads for feet). There is a little bowl with left over frosting and a messy knife. I made decals for the little cannisters of flour and sugar (and the third one on the shelf below), and they look really sweet. There are some more little cakes on a pretty blue plate and a glass jar of rose petal sugar.




On the bottom shelf are all sorts of pretty little bits and pieces - I really like the little cook books - such pretty covers - (there are no recipes inside though!). What a fun project!
