These tables were sad. Their knots were showing through the cream finish but instead of looking aged they looked... old. You know the difference, right?Enter their new life... I sanded, primed, sanded, and added a couple of coats of Krylon Mediterranean. It looked really, really bright. I was a little nervous. But I sanded some more, applied some RL Tobacco glaze, sanded again & recoated with glaze, and here they are!
I love them!
Now, who can guess where this next project is headed?! And if you've been in my garage (or, uhm, studio!) over the last few days, you can't guess!

THe glaze was the ticket on these tables...I love them! Good job, it's so much fun to paint furniture, it is immediate gratification!~
ReplyDeleteWhat a great look. I've been wanting to refinish a dresser in Turquoise, but was a little nervous to do it fearing it would be too bright-what a great idea to use the glaze to tone it down. Now I think I'll go for it!
ReplyDeleteKathie I LOVE your table transformation. The color you chose is just perfect -- wonderful job! :)

I love those tables and that color is perfect for my house. What brand was the tobacco product? Paint or a glaze? When you get a chance come and check out my blog!
ReplyDeleteLove the color! Now the shape of those legs really are shown off. Good eye!
ReplyDeleteWow these look absolutely awesome! Really nice job!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great color. I am always afraid to choose something other than wood stain or white for coffee/end tables, but this has just inspired me to branch out! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness... I love it!
ReplyDeleteIt is my favorite color!
Thank you for sharing and
Have a great weekend!

These look great, love the color. I've been painting and glazing like crazy lately. I've just used leftover brown paint for glazing, but may have to get serious and try a real glaze :)
ReplyDeleteI can't guess! Tell me! I love the tables. They are a perfect color. Isn't glaze wonderful?!? I love the stuff. Thank you so much for joining my Friday link party! See you next week! ;)
ReplyDeletePerfect color and glaze for the style of table. I used the same Kyron paint color for the chandelier that now hangs above our dinning room table. I love turquois. Also, happy to find someone else who enjoys antique furniture and refinishing it.
