A table changed

There it was, sturdy old piece just sitting around in the garage looking mopey, getting dusty and knicked up by wheelbarrow and lawn mower fly-bys.





While the piece is solid wood, after attempting to sand it I discovered the top was actually some sort of hard-board with an applied woodgrain look (read: no beautiful grain available to stain).  Top would be painted.



Result, body in gray and the top and doors in white (with floral detail by hand), a little mellow mustard drama on the single drawer.  Anthropological knobs for added dimension:
