I picked up this coffee table/storage chest at a garage sale for $20.
It definitely had some wear... a few of the brackets were bent,
and it appeared to have been used as a children's coloring table and dining table, as it showed a lot of marker and fruit punch stains....
but nothing too big for us!

Matt sanded the living daylights out of the table, trying to get rid of the strong stains, and make it ready to repaint. He hammered the brackets, and removed the old handles.
We had to tape off all of the brackets, so they wouldn't get painted and then we painted the outside of the table, but really felt like the inside needed a little something, so off to Hobby Lobby.
We bought 2 new handles for the sides that cost about $12, and a funky mustache and bowler hat burlap material for around $20.
After attaching the new handles, lining the entire inside with the burlap, and "roughing it up" we were finally done.
Total redo cost was about $55.
