Here we have a rather sad coffee table that a client asked me to re-do and make beautiful and it wasn't that hard to do.

Here is the table when I got it. It was very well worn. But it had potential :) |
|
Here is a close up of the detail on the legs and the apron of the piece. |
|
Here is the leg after I painted the whole thing black. It was pretty But.....There was still work to be done. |
|
This is the leg close up after distressing it. The detail now is much more pronounced but it looks dry and the wood showing through is very light. |
|
This is the close up of the leg after I put the colored wax on it. The wax makes the leg more rich looking and not dry at all. |
|
This is the side view of the finished piece. Notice the distressing on the side apron was done with a very light touch and only went through the black paint and not the wood stain. |

Finish piece was delivered to a very happy client. Its so much fun to do these interesting pieces. Everyone has them, there is a never ending supply.
oooh, this table is beautiful... love the distressed look.
