A New Old Table…
I found this really cute table at Goodwill a month or so ago. I love the legs on it and when I saw that the price was $ 2.49, I grabbed it!!! The top had veneer chipping off and there were water marks on it. But I knew that with a little primer, paint and sandpaper I could turn this dud into a stud!!
I took off the veneer on top since it was chipping anyway.
I disassembled the table to make the rest of the job easier.
I love using Zinsser spray primer.
My $4.00 Ooops paint from Lowe’s . Lyndhurst Duchess Blue Interior Semi-Gloss. I would describe this as a “Robin’s Egg Blue”.
I used Pewter Grey acrylic paint to tone down the blue.
I used a sponge brush to apply it and wiped it off with a damp rag.
I love the end result. I distressed it to make the primer and wood show through.
LOVE it!!
I chose the perfect spot…
Much better now. I love the finished look. Very vintage and colorful!!
