So here she is!
My beautiful side table.
The pictures don't do her justice!
Her is what she looked like when I drove 40 miles to pick her up.
She was in pretty rough shape but I fell in love with her curves and details and the price was right.
So we loaded her up into the back of my SUV!
I had to glue on that missing trim shown in the picture above.
I don't usually sand my pieces when I know I'm painting with chalk or milk paint but in this case I wanted to smooth out the top so light sanding was in order.
The result is smooth as butter!
Love all that chippy goodness!
After 2 coats of
I lightly sanded and distressed
wiped clean and then applied white wax.
I let it set for 24 hours and then buffed it with an old T-shirt.
And one last look at the before...

Thank you for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day!
