New Look for a Tired Table

This table needed a new look, it was old, tired, and had damage that required a deep sanding. 
 
 
 

 
 
 
I love a good round table.  They look beautiful sitting in a bay window with a seasonal vignette displayed, or a large foyer with a big bouquet of flowers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
When getting ready to paint a new piece, I go to my "Painted Furniture" board on Pinterest for inspiration.  Feel free to find your own inspiration HERE.
 
For this project I used THIS.  I loved the color combination!
 
 
 
I started by giving it a good coat of primer.
 
 





 
 
 
 




 
 
 
The top took several coats of black with a good quality roller.



 
 
The bottom was painted Gray with White dry brushed over the top.
 
 
I sealed the top with a couple of coats of sealer, being careful not to leave any roller marks (that was the hard part).
 
A nice Fall vignette on top and I love the new look.
