Vintage Two Tier Drum Table Transformation

August 02, 2020
This is a little vintage table that my mother found thrifting.  The top had some finish and water damage so she had a tablecloth on it most of the time.  



I decided to paint it with Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint in Midnight Sky.  Dixie Belle describes Midnight Sky as a dark blue black.

After I brushed on two coats of Midnight Sky, I taped this 18" Artminds Mandala Stencil from Michael's onto the table top.

I swirled on the stencil using Fusion Mineral Paint in Coal Black.  

The black paint color over the dark blue/black paint resulted in a subtle, monochromatic stencil design.

I then brightened up the metal lion rings on each side of the table with Rub 'n Buff Wax Metallic Finish in Antique Gold.  I applied it with my finger and wiped off the excess.

They show up so much better after the Rub n' Buff.

Rub n' Buff lightened the feet up as well.

I waxed the paint and stencil with Dixie Belle Best Dang Wax in Clear.  I applied the wax with a wax brush and also a rag.

The table has a modern farmhouse look.
