How to update an old table with a bit of quirkiness!

Instructions

  1. Small 2018 09 10 172451 dsc06636

    Sand down an old table to give a good key for the new paint. You'll want to thoroughly wipe it down when you're finished, so no dust remains.

  2. Small 2018 09 10 172550 dsc06642

    Paint the table in one flat colour first. You may need to sand the table in-between coats if any texture appears in the paint.

  3. Small 2018 09 10 172644 dsc06646

    Apply masking tape over the top of the table in a random way, creating geometric shapes.

  4. Small 2018 09 10 172731 dsc06649

    Paint over the masking tape in a separate colour and once dry, peel back the tape.

    Once done, you should have a quirky and cool tabletop that's completely transformed your piece of furniture!
