I have been wanting to make this table over for a while. It is a little tile top cottage style table bought in the early 90's. Still stuck in the early 90's, it needed a makeover. I had originally thought I would paint the legs but that just wasn't enough of a change.
I have always wanted a plank table. I was in the shed the other day trying to imagine some leftover lumber turned into a plank table. But, then I realized if I removed the top of the tile table I would have the base for my plank top table. So we removed about a dozen screws and the tile top. Then we placed two pine panels in their place and I had my plank table.
Here the top is stained. I used a walnut stain.
I roughed up the legs even more than the kids have with the orbital sander.
Wanting to make the wear more pronounced, I glazed the legs to age them with Valspar glaze in mocha.
Here is the finished table. I will work on the chairs next.
Just look at the plank goodness!
