Before and After: Dining Table
Before After My husband found this dining table on the side of the road. Someone’s trash is another person’s treasure. We have actually had this for over a year taking up space when we finally decided to finish it up. We did this in a two-tone color scheme. With the top being stained and the bottom using Storm Cloud Gray color along with the chairs. We used Cabinet paint because of the constant wear and tear on it and sealed the whole table with a polyurethane for easy clean-up.

Before and After: Coffee Table
I found this coffee table about 5 years ago at this little small Antique shop in downtown Benton in Arkansas. We lived there at the time and I squealed with delight as it was only $50. We took it out to the farm and transformed it. Staining the top a nice dark stain and painting the base a beautiful teal/turquoise color with a stained glaze distressed finish on top. We then sealed it with a couple of coats of polyurethane. We have used it every since, and I’m not sure I’d part with it. To be honest, I don’t remember the exact colors we used but it’s still a precious…

Before and After: Antique Table
This is a cute antique table and we originally thought to leave it stained and just clean it up but it had several “ring” spots that we could not get out and so distressed white is what we decided. We did remove the stain with JASCO Paint and Epoxy Remover. After painting, it was distressed by sanding away some of the paint to create a worn look. Paint Colors: Valspar Satin – White Also sealed with Miniwax Polyacrylic

Before and After: Farmhouse Entry or Sofa Table
We got this entry or sofa table to sell in our booth or to use as decoration. It is actually made from mostly particle board so its not high quality furniture but we just needed something to fill up space. But the After is really actually not bad. We even considered not selling and just keeping it but we will be on the lookout for a better piece of furniture. Paint Colors: Valspar Satin – Storm Cloud Also sealed with Miniwax Polyacrylic
