This one landed in my store.
The drop leaf table was in need of love. The top was a mess.

After lots of sanding, she was ready to be reinforced.

Then painted.

I worked with a paint specialist and arrived at a black that dries super hard. It is perfect for a table or anything that gets a lot of abuse.
The paint will not go through my sprayer because it dries so fast, so I rolled it with a small Purdy roller.
The base of the table received a coat of ASCP Louis Blue and Paris Grey, mixed together. A light distressing finished her off.

The distressing brought out the wood through both the black and the Chalk Paint.
Here she is ready for a new home.

I hope people realize the other side of the table lifts up! If I kept it open, it would take up my whole space!

Have a great day!

I love how this turned out!!! I had a similar table to this during college. If only I had known about painting furniture!
I love your table! Great idea for the top! Thanks for sharing this idea! I'm a new follower.
Tables are great. Every time my husband decides to replace one of ours, I hate to let it go. But then if I had your talent for reviving them, I wouldn't need to let them go.
