A table makeover
As you know I'm participating in a Glidden Testers campaign and am giving my living way a makeover.
I realized though when looking at the tester bottles that these are the same size as the acrylic rouge bottles I purchase at guile stores to retread smaller items in my house, so I purchased quite a few brief bottles while I was picking up my living board makeover colors so I could commence clearing out the garage of totally my bargain basement finds.
I purchased this half round pink hall postpone at Beverly's for $19 quite a piece agone.
It looked a bit unaccompanied seance at the top of the steps all by itself.
Just directly it doesn't.
I love the painting hanging preceding the remit. My grandmother painted it for me as a little reminder of home, and my dad carved the frame. Information technology's a painting of my parents yard and all of the birds and flowers that we see whenever we visit.
To Doctor of Osteopathy this I started away sanding downcast the pink table. Next I applied a flat coat, then multi-colored a coat of Blue-Grey Slating (Glidden tester), then a pelage of Deepest Aquamarine (Glidden examiner), leaving each surface to dry before moving onto the next. Once it was dry I used a brass wire thicket to present the table a slightly worn facial expression, and so you could see a lowercase of the grey viewing done. Past I practical a couple up of coats of protective finish.
Tip: I used a diminutive roller for the final coat of Deepest Aqua on the topmost and also on the section underneath where the plant is sitting. This eliminated seeing whatever sweep strokes on these two sections.

The little table looks more attractive when you changed IT into greenish blue. I wish my board would turn out like yours when I metamorphic its color.
