The steps below follow the order of the work for this furniture project.
Katie at Impatiently Praying for Patience loves red! See her new red painted accent table and how great it looks.
I have heard it said that every room could use a little red.
I love red, well I used to LOVE red.
Everything was red.
It was a little overwhelming. I had a red dining room, red and gold bedroom, heck my boys nursery was (is) red, black, and tan. So I still do LOVE red, but I love it better now when it is just a little punch of red.
A punch of red makes it more special.
I found this table and it was in bad shape. It worth keeping been left out in the rain or maybe they had a 4 year old that like to just pour water all over it periodically throughout the day… everyday for a year or so.
In other words, I will have some tables that will be in this condition in a little while.
So here is what she looked like before.
Just a sad direct table. I had already started sanding down the wavy top.
Then I primed and spray painted with some candy apple spray paint.
Holy Cow that is bright!
Next I got some Ralph Lauren glaze that I already had tinted “tea stain” and put some in a cup and then mixed in some graphite paint with it.
Just mixed it together and then brushed it on then wiped it off.
I have to say I REALLY like how it turned out.
See? Just a well fitted punch a red to a room.
The red makes the details on the side pop out. I didn’t even notice it before.
I got the handles at Hobby Lobby.
