HIDDY HO NEIGHBOR - games tables

This wonderful pair of tables were bought from the neighbor's barn sale.

One bottom self was broke but quickly repaired with new dowels and glue.

I loved the detail on the top and wanted to emphasize it with the new look.

Being able to put them together to make one round table or separately against the wall,

they are very handy just about anywhere you want to use them.

 There were stained with a dark walnut and painted in a creamy white before distressing and waxing.

I really enjoyed this project

because I was able to take each table completely

apart to work on.

I think they would be great bedside tables for a spare room.

 

FUN WITH PHOTOGRAPHY - french coffee table

This solid maple table was painted with

10 min dry EXCEL spray paint in Oyster Grey.

It's a beautiful color and the paint provides a

 remarkable hard, durable, and professional finish.

Unfortunetly it is hard to find and has a

very strong odor when first applied.

TEA ANYONE?

The view is amazing!

Of course the button tufting stays.
