I'm calling it a 'side table'. I'm sure that all you real decorators know it by some fancy-pants name but unfortunately, my fancy pants are at the cleaners. I set the husband to work stripping no less than four coats of paint off this bad boy...
He says there's something satisfying about stripping all that old paint off. I thought it looked really gross.
Doesn't it look like a giant blew his nose all over this paper? Ugh.
After the hubs stripped it and sanded it for about a million years, I painted the legs white and stained the top with a walnut... the hubs finished it up with a polyurethane coat and IT WAS DONE. It probably seemed like it took longer than it actually did because it's been SO HOT HERE I CAN'T STAND IT. At any rate, it's done.
I love it!
Lovely, wish I had the energy you have. :)

Wow, it looks great. Very impressive. Aren't you glad you went to that thrift store?
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful transformation. And, I love that you had your husband do some of the work...even better! I love the white mixed with the stained top. Really well done!
ReplyDeleteStay cool and happy 4th.
And, the *stay cool* reference reminds me of signing 8th grade years books. Have a great summer and stay cool :)
Nice job TGC! Love the stained top.
