Satin Fossil Side Table

The latest project was a table I bought at a local "furniture rescue" store and warehouse. They have tons of lovingly used furniture that you can take unpainted, or have painted for you.


Materials:
cover stain oil based primer, paint brush, fine sand paper, satin spray paint (we used 2 cans of Rust-oleum's Satin Fossil spray paint), new hardware

This time we tried the cover stain oil based primer. There was no sanding needed! Make sure to have some vegetable oil to wash your hands after priming. We did 3 coats of the primer, but didn't use the highest quality brush which definitely makes a difference.

The new hardware is from Amazon. If you search around, you can find some great deals! 


Here's the final product! The satin finish makes the table look clean and modern. 
The color fits perfectly in our living room! I've already switched around 
all of our accessories in the living room to accent this table :)




Happy finding! -C
