Yesterday, I gave you a sneak peek at my latest project. I was working on a coffee table makeover. Well, I finished it! Woohoo! Here's the $8 table before -
The top was a little rough so I applied some wood putty -
Then I sanded the whole thing down. After a coat of Kilz Oil Based Primer, I applied three coats of Valspar Du Jour (I had it left over from another project that I'm working on). But I wanted to give this table a little bit of interest, so I grabbed some supplies from Michael's -
A pack of Martha Stewart stencils, stencil adhesive and craft brushes. That whole trip cost me $20 but I can reuse all of it so it was worth the investment. Then I applied two coats of Olympic Secret Passage. Here's the after -
I think it is sooo much better now. I may have to stencil more often!
