First, I must preface this post with two tables that I painted...
These two tables came into my life and I painted them black with featured tops that were different...after all these table were different, but way too cool. I had them all over the house and as you see above, I even had them in my living room at one point in time. I finally sold them with the last one going recently. Yes, I loved them but I had my fun with them. Time to move on.
Yet another one of these tables recently came into my life. They just seem to find me! Here is what it looked like when I found it.
The top had some slight damage on it. It is walnut veneer and some of it was loose. I glued it and clamped it down. The top has a design that I found pleasing. I fully intended on painting this piece black like the other ones and do some kind of paint treatment on the top. But after fixing the top, I just had to refinish only the top. I think it came out beautiful.
However, I didn't want the whole piece like this so I painted the legs and skirting white and put on a walnut satin. I then dry brushed back over that with the same white. This will tone down the stain and give it a more professional look to the piece.
Now it sits in my Green Toile Guest Bedroom that you can see the post on that
here.
I really love how versatile these tables are. I think that they are referred to as parlor tables or foyer tables since they are higher than most side tables. Please click on any of the pictures to see the details better. Terry
