Andy of A Mile in Mom's Manolos proves that an old telephone desk can be transformed into a coastal chic seat with side table that's perfect for a hallway or an entry.
Some paint, great Fabric, and accessories such as a Coastal Pillow, and a Nantucket Basket with flowers...
... did wonders for this desk found abandoned by the side of the road! For all the details and more pictures, visit Andy..., and check out the before and after of her beachy striped Sidetable too!

That is so beautiful! I love the pillow!
I love this! I remember these tables from my childhood and since I have a retro phone, I would love to find one to finish just like this. That pillow is wonderful and just perfectly completes the beachy look.
I love it! I even have a telephone that would work perfect on it! I better start looking on the side of the road! lol ♥
Thanks for the love!
Way cute and I love the pillow!
Amazing and inspiring to know what a little white paint and a few stripes will do to enliven and update a piece of furniture!
that is super!!! indeed very inspiring to see what a little paint and DIY love can do! I just wish I had the DIY gene. I am going to have to keep my eyes open for a little table like this.
My mother-in-law had a telephone table. I hated it, but I LOVE this one!!! It's beautiful.
Brilliant! We love upcycling!
I just love this. Especially the striped seat and the blooms.
Beautiful piece. I guess he had vision.

Who would have thunk it?? Wow it turned out great. That seahorse pillow is ADORABLE! ~Lili
What a great makeover! And so cool - I'm in the middle of making over four chairs that are almost identical to the chair on this telephone desk. Love the circle motif on the back :-)
I love the transformation of this telephone desk! What a beautiful job you did!!
I love old telephone desks! They are one of my fav pieces of furniture and it looks amazing in blue and white:)
Love it!
This came out GREAT! I pulled out the telephone desk I bought at a yard sale two summers ago...the one I've done NOTHING with!...a couple of weekends ago and I have a plan (finally) for her as soon as it's warm enough outside to paint her (which may be never, lol!) but I'm really liking this beachy keen color scheme. Hmmmm...
p.s. Totally bought the PB Teen cushion cover you posted on facebook. Very excited!!
I had one of these and I gave it away. I should have painted it instead.
Oh wow, love the back on that. Looks great all white with the stripes. I just used some similar fabric in my laundry room.
