My Two Dollar Fifty Cent Table

I finished it.  I wish it weren't so dark.  I thought the color it was after the first coat was perfect.  Next time I will select a slightly lighter shade.  Oh well, live and learn.  Here she is drying.  I had to put the finishing coat on under the patio cover.  Woke up to more rain today. 

Here it is in the house.  I am toying with the idea of moving all of my living room furniture around. 

I painted the knobs with my oil rubbed bronze.  My "go to" paint.

This was really my first complete redo project like this.  I learned a lot.  I used the stain/poly in one.  I did like it.  I also suggest buying a very good brush.  I used a 2" brush by Purdy.  It did not show brush strokes at all, and did a great job.  I think a good brush is everything!
Now I need to find a nice little chair for the den.  I am on the hunt.  Which is sometimes, the best part.
This afternoon my brother David and his wife Glenda, and their kids Don and his wife Kaylen, and Chad, all came out to take me to lunch/dinner for my (pre) birthday.  We had a nice visit, and a good lunch!  Here is Greg showing them his "fix it" project for the day.  He put a roman shade in on my kitchen window. 

There might have been a glitch or two. But if you see him, do NOT ask!!!

Anyway, it's all good now.
Think I will go work on my afghan a while.
Happy Sunday!
