Giving new life to old furniture


This little side table was purchased from a thrift store.  I think I paid eight dollars for it.  I bought it with no clear idea where I would use it.  Once I started putting my solarium together it became clear that this little table was perfect for that room.  



After cleaning it with Murphy's Oil soap and drying it thoroughly I gave it a light sanding to take off some of the remaining shine.  There were holes that had to be filled with wood filler and more sanding.  Once the top felt smooth to the touch I painted it with Chalky paint and finished with cream wax.  


I'm really proud of how great it looks in the room!


The refinished coffee table can be seen in the previous post.
