Chalk Paint Coffee Table Transformation!
by
Decor&Dine
After purchasing a farm as a second home we didn't have a big budget to furnish it so when my mother gave me an old coffee table and side table that she had stored away I took it. They are great tables but too dark for the look I am going for.
Before: Dark wood with a glass insert top. I didn't mind the glass but wanted a lighter colour.
Chalk paint is the easiest paint to use, no sanding or prep needed. I used "Old White" from Annie Sloan.
After two coats of Annie Sloan paint I sanded to distress and applied clear wax.
I am pretty happy with the results. A "new" coffee table and side table for my living room and it cost me less than a can of paint.

OUTSTANDING!! I love it and I loved it before. The style is really sharp! I HAVE one, but mine is natural oak. I would love to do all my tables.
