Transform an old coffee table into a fab piece of furniture for the playroom with a little bit of help from Resene.
Fun with furniture with Mark Rayner - Project 14
Difficulty level: Challenging
You will need: a clean cloth, coarse, medium and fine grade sandpaper, enlarged print of a child’s toy (we used a photographic print on glossy photographic paper), latex gloves, nylon pot scourer, old coffee table, paintbrushes (including a medium artists’ brush), paint scraper and PVA glue. Resene Strip-Off paint stripper, Resene Aquaclear gloss, Resene Waterborne Smooth Surface Sealer, Resene Colorwood testpot of Resene Cherrywood and Resene Lustacryl tinted to Resene Black.
To get the look: Mark painted the background wall with Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen tinted to Resene Lickety Split.
Other ideas: For a bright red table top use a Resene Colorwood testpot of Resene Red Pepper.
Apply two coats of Resene Black to the table legs, allowing two hours for each coat to dry.
