PAINTED TABLE LEGS

June 7, 2011

 

If you've been visiting BDwL for a very long time, you may remember when I painted these chairs with Annie Sloan Old White chalk paint.

When I painted the chairs, I was going to paint the legs and apron of the table "soon".

I went back to find the painted chairs post, and I couldn't believe it had been over three years since I painted the chairs. Do you think I might be a procrastinator?

I decided I'd better get the table painted before painted furniture goes out of style. So, I finally painted the legs and the apron with Annie Sloan Old White.

I'm so mad at myself for not doing it sooner. It went very quickly, and I love the way it looks. I even like the wood on top of the table better with the white legs and apron.

I still haven't put any wax on it. And, this table has another leaf, which I did not drag out when I was painting, so eventually, I'll need to paint the apron on that leaf.

Hopefully, I won't wait three more years to paint the other leaf and wax all of the new paint.

I'm really glad you came to see me.
