Swirls, Turns and Chippy Goodness
I have been enjoying summer and neglecting my blog, but I hope to change that. Sitting in front of my computer has just not appealed to me lately, but I have been using my paintbrush a lot!
Awhile ago I found a really neat table with great lines that just needed a bit of TLC.
Before:
The table has great turned legs and wonderful details, but the wood was in pretty bad shape.
I gave the top a good sanding with my electric sander and then sealed it with AS dark wax/Linseed Oil.
The top ended up beautiful!
I decided I wanted the table to have a chippy look, so I mixed up some Milk Paint from Miss Mustard Seed in Ironstone.
I gave the table a couple of coats of MMS milk paint and then as it dried watched the chippy magic happen.
I scraped the flakes off and sealed the table with clear carnauba wax.
Love this chippy table now!
