Newest Sewing Table re-do
Next in line is this one. http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...e-t221332.html
But, I finished this one up and I'm happy(ish) with the results. It was in very poor condition to start with, missing chunks of veneer and was antiqued with some horrible paint that had drips everywhere and was a nightmare to get off. The finish isn't as smooth as I'd like but at least now it can look in the mirror without being embarrassed. A 15 clone came out of it, but I think it's a Singer table.
Here are the before and after pics.

Yes, it's a darker grey metallic. It's a Home Depot Martha Stewart, specialty paint. Kind of pricey for a small amount. I wasn't too crazy about the coverage, so it needled lots of coats, even using a primer. But, it's soap and water clean up which was very nice and it didn't stink. I would use it again.
