Octagon Side Tabe

May 18, 2013 by galleryfive12 1 Comment

I found this table on Craigslist and immediately knew I wanted to restore it – there is something about unique side tables I just love. The previous owner had tried to paint or stain or something on top and it had a very rough to the touch texture.

Once I stripped and sanded the top I knew that I wanted to stain it – the wood was too beautiful to paint over. I went with a dark stain and a wipe on poly finish. On the bottom I painted it with my Annie Sloan French Linen paint and added a clear wax topcoat. I just love how this cute little table turned out!

Thanks for looking!  ~Jess
