I found this table on Craigslist and fell for it right away. It's not often you find a table with such interesting lines. I love the detail work. When I first saw it, I thought I'd definitely be using dark wax on it. However, I decided to do a wash on it and liked it so much, I just stuck with a clear wax and called it good!

You can see from the picture below that the painting technique on this piece is very rustic. I wanted it to look shabby chic and am really excited about how this finish gives it that look.

Kris, this and the card catalog are my favorites! They look so beautiful! I have a dresser I'd love to get your input on. I want to fix it up for Drew's room. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a few pictures of it. Love you!
