Kerry renovated her table on a budget

49-year-old health visitor Kerry Green saved hundreds of pounds by renovating an old IKEA table instead of purchasing a new one. Using online tutorials and £15.95 paint, Kerry managed to create the wood effect she was looking for.

"The supplies I got for this project were much cheaper than just buying a new table. I used two tins of Frenchic paint from the Alfresco range in the shade Blackjack. The tins cost £19.95 each.
