I’m so glad I decided to paint the tired old pine table because it’s lookin’ sharp with it’s new black paint job. The downside is that every scratch, dent and nic shows from years of dependable service, five moves plus the terrifying ordeal of being stored in a cellar that flooded. Now it just needs a couple coats of Varathane and it’s good to go.

I’ve also made some progess on the corner unit and it’s coming along slowly. Here is the before with the door off, drawer and shelves out and ready for primer.


And here it is primed with the first coat of “Organic White” painted on the interior. I put the second coat on today and plan to get started on the shelves this weekend. I may even get started on painting the exterior black.
