Hello, My Beauties!

I have a super fun, super glam and funky makeover for you guys today! I am part of the Fab Furniture Flippin' Group and this months

Makeover was "Icing on the Cake" Our sponsor for this months FLIP was

D. Lawless Hardware! It's a family owned and operated company that specializes in hardware, catches, casters, and even wood appliques. He has amazingly low prices as well as the wonderful customer service. They have some beautiful hardware that can be the "Icing on the Cake".

Here is the piece I started with.

I picked up this piece for $10 at a barn sale from another mom who had the Best intention of making it over, but just couldn't get around to it.

You can see that structurally it was sound..just outdated in the white and golden oak.

Plus the top was very beat up and her son had even etched his name in the top :)

I started by sanding the top down a bit to get some of the deep grooves out.

I don't mind distressed but sometimes its nice to smooth things out a little.

I then painted the base in a General Finishes Gray milk paint.

You can see here, the first coat going on

Good Day to you ... just found this site and this was the first project I decided to check out ... not only do I have a table similar stored in a shed .. I have a small collection of vintage cameras and photo equipment ...I am wondering if you could tell me the artist who painted this seascape? I have many seascape paintings done by various artist and this one, particularly reminds me of many I own and have 'sold' thru the years. I am intrigued by it. This is a wonderful gathering of 'how to' and I am certain I will be entertained and spend too much time looking at the projects I am new in the rehab of furniture Can't wait to get started. Kind regards, Mia
