I visited a great new store in Cypress, TX called The Prickly Pair Collections that is filled with tons of treasures. A lot of the antique furniture there features the use of chalk paint and wax, which is a new technique to me. I immediately thought this would be PERFECT for the wooden edge of the coffee table.
So we bought the paint, wax, of course the wax brush, and got to work:
It took me two coats to get the coverage I wanted on the wood with this paint. But we bought the small bottle and didn't even use half. It goes a long way.
Below, I'm applying the wax, this is after I sanded the edges to get the
antiqued look I wanted.
With new screws, buffing of the wax and transportation to the new apt, we have our completed coffee table!
