Go Green

This table started out gold & gaudy!

It was actually spray painted metallic gold! WHY?!!!

Lucky for me, no one else wanted it, 

so I got it for only $5 at auction.

We all know that paint changes everything!

So, I picked Bayberry Green for the transformation.

If you've used milk paint,

 you know it does that cool chippy thing.

And, even though I didn't like the gold, 

I thought it might be cool to have a little of 

it showing through.

But, in this case, the milk paint didn't chip.

I decided that the table could use another coat of the green, so before I added another coat, I waxed the table.

After I added another coat of green, 

the magic started to happen...

I also sanded a little around the edges...

From gold & gaudy

to

green & gorgeous!
