This little beauty was rescued during one of our many Craigslist furniture hunting trips. Remember this little Wood Pillar that I found hidden away in the corner, well just like that I stumbled on this table from the same place and we ended up getting it.
Like the Wood Pillar I had no intention of buying this table. We specifically went to get just one table and ended up with two more pieces.
What made me want it was the same exact reason I got the pillar, those swirly curly carvings on the drawers. Plus it was in such a good shape I just had to have it.
Materials Needed for This Project
Paint Brush(to paint the drawer handles)
So behold the before you guys.
It just had a few little scratches here and there but overall it was in a pretty good condition. I had planned on painting it in a grey and purple combination but ended up doing something completely different like always.
This time around I didn’t use my paintbrush for painting this table since those details on the drawers would have taken me forever.
So I used my HomeRight Finish Max Sprayer and it basically is a lifesaver. Under Ten Minutes my table was done. I used Behr Premium Plus in Semi Gloss Enamel and sprayed about three coats of white on the table and for the drawers I used a Cool Blue color in Matte and sprayed Two coats.
For the handles of the drawer I went in with my Martha Stewarts Liquid Gold Gilding to brighten up those dull drawer pulls.
I used a really thin paintbrush and carefully painted around the handles without the need of detaching it from the drawers.When the paint was dry I sprayed three coats of Polycrylic Protective Finish on top to seal everything in and there you have it.
All Done.
What do you guys think?
