Now
Drop leaf coffee table in light sage green and cream white.
Before
Queen Anne style, heavy solid wood
I gave this table a coat of primer, two coats of green and one coat of white
Very shabby chic cottage style
I made the lines imperfect to add to the style I was going for
I moved everything in my breakfast nook to take photos of this table, this is the only room with good sunlight.
This is the true colors of the table, some of the photos it looks more lime green.
Close up: under table, and hinges for drop leaf
{ The leafs just pop up easy and when you want them down you just bend the hinge and they come down perfectly. }
distressing
I used two coats of a clear wax
I even have the matching side table ready to be redone, not sure If I'll match it or do something different.
This coffee table will be for sale, and I'll have the dimensions posted soon on my for sale page soon.
