smooth like buttah...looks like leather

I.am.in.love

But little do you know, this table has a surprise on the top.

This table top didn't always look like this.

It had some water damage on the top, so I had to use a few layers of Kilz and let it sit. Then I put a coat of ASCP in Coco.(It's my new fav color!)

I gathered some supplies


and went to work.

But I wasn't done!

I waxed it with a combination of light and dark wax to get the aged leathered look.









This table started out bumpy and gross looking! Now it's as smooth as buttah!

There's even a little surprise in the drawer!

I'll leave you with the Before Meets After

  2. Hi Lis,
    What a great job? What a difference in looking too.

    How I wish, I could some of my old furnitures.

    Happy Tuesday.
