The big table....the finished article

Well at last, it's finished.  A lot of sanding and painting but it looks great.

I'm glad I didn't go too strong on the pastel shades when it shares the room with the lounge and kitchen. I'll show the original picture as well so you can compare.

A top tip from the man at bunnings warehouse, if you don't want thick varnish but you want to seal the table top then apply clear satin water based varnish with a soft cloth. Sand with a plastic scourer (it better than fine sand paper) in between coats. It makes it look like it's bare wood.

Would I do it again.......Oh yes, I'm looking for odd chairs to paint and have outside.


Hope you like the results
