This poor table couldn't decide what color to be. After priming with white, a coat of a vintage looking white was applied. That made the whole thing look TOO white so I did a coat of Pins and Needles blue on the surface. Still not right. I think there wasn't enough contrast. So I did a layer of Sequoia. It looked... more contrasted. Still didn't look finished. So after splattering the legs with the Sequoia, I slathered on a rough coat of the vintage white and then just sanded the areas where the paint went on kind of scantily. I think it looks much better now. Definitely better than the blase blond wood it started as.

| Yup. Until this sweet table finds a home, it's going to be our new school table. I foresee it lending a hand at being a fort, too. |
Chester the magazine table... he's finally done! I love the bright turquoise color and after adding the little embellishment on the front, this fella is dressed up and needs somewhere to go.

My garage is looking a little emptier now but thankfully, I found a desk to work on. So that brings my un-finished total to...6 pieces. Better get to work!
the school table looks fantastic :) You set it off lovingly. Hope you find a loving home for it.
