NO PAINTING FOR U chippy yellow table

Sitting all alone at a church sale I couldnt resist this little table,

with its arborite top and glossy thick paint cover up.

I started by scrapping and peeling all the white paint and dirt off.

Thats when I found the original pale yellow paint underneath.

I removed the arborite and belt sanded the top smooth,

then moved to the body sanding every inch of the soft yellow paint,

before adding a stain wash.

The entire table got a coat of  walnut gel stain before it was polish back.

See how the yellow and the wood stand out now.

Its finished with wipe on poly and wax.

HAVE I GOT A CHAIR FOR U additions to the showroom

1 fabulous balloon back chair upholstered in a durable pink floral with nailhead trim,

and

1 vintage desk chair with carved details, painted and upholstered in bright white.

The reclaimed fabric used on this chair is a soft cord in beige with a

bright white lace strip and floral print in pinks.

The frame is painted in bright white with distressing to

show the nature wood underneath, a great shabby chic look.

The upholstery chosen for this second chair comes from a set of white

quilted pillow shams and has a beautiful raised floral print.

The entire chair has been painted in white over soft grey and distressed back

to show signs of the grey.
