Chalkboard paint was just the trick for updating our kid's table.
Sweet Inspiration came from Stellar Junk. Check out the awesome table she created to keep the kids busy at her sale.

Our table was a hand-me-down from my husband's childhood, that I refinished for our daughter, years ago. Last summer, I covered it to use on my patio. Wow my staple gun really planted those staples! Love the wood grain underneath. I may have to strip the paint from the table top some day.  After removing the cover, you can see the sweet alphabet stencil I did, once upon a time:)  A light sanding to the legs for a shabby chic effect. A little more sanding on top, to help the new coat of paint adhere. Then two coats of chalk board paint on the top. The finished look is really cool!  This will be perfect as an art table, or snack table on my porch for the halloween trick-or-treaters!  Happy painting! |
