Table to Bench

my friend gave us some new end tables and a coffee table because she was moving. so that means i get to get rid of old stuff. which means i got to make a bench from my old coffee table! 

first, took it all apart. i spray painted the bottom white. the paint reacted weirdly with whatever the table is made of, but it kind of looked cool.

then i sanded the edges for a worn vintage look.

i covered the top in foam and gray fabric (both on sale at Hobby Lobby).

 i put the top back on and ta-da! new bench. and yes, it is cat approved.
