Last weekend, Nancy and I had a booth at Goat Hill Fair. It was a fabulous event, as usual, with so many talented vendors and enchanting treasures. We sold Chalk Paint and did a few paint demonstrations at our booth.
I brought these two, old pedestal tables to Goat Hill for one of my paint demos. I loved the darling shape of these pedestals, but they were a little too beat-up and dirty looking before.
I cleaned the dirt and dust off and then painted them with Versailles Chalk Paint. They looked kind of plain, so I added Old White stripes to the top. This is what they looked like with a fresh coat of paint, before distressing and waxing.
After distressing them all over, I applied Annie Sloan clear wax, followed by a little dark wax to antique them.

Love!!!
The stripes look really pretty on these already adorable tables :)
These would be great to hold coffee or drinks. I love what you were able to do with them. If I got these for free I'd just get rid of them. You on the other hand made them in a beautiful piece of art. Whether or not you use them to sit on or to hold things. They are definitely worth keeping now.
You guys present there are performing an excellent job. click here
