Sometimes when I get a piece of furniture home, I wonder what the hell I was thinking. This coffee table was one of those - it was in terrible shape, the varnish was very flaky, it wobbled and I cursed myself at wasting my money and time but I'm so happy with how this has been transformed.
Ahh... the power of paint never ceases to amaze me.
For the before photo - just imagine something that most people would put on the side of the road...
And this is my next challenge. I love the details on this piece below and the lion's head pulls.
Kids are back to school tomorrow. I've got to still dig out their winter uniforms and hope they still fit. I'm looking forward to getting some uninterrupted painting time.
