Antique Fold Down Sides Accent Table Restore

  This stunning antique drop leaf table is both functional and full of charm, the fold-down edges that make it ideal for smaller spaces while providing extra surface area when needed. Measuring 30”W x 22”D x 24”H, it’s the perfect versatile piece. The top has been beautifully refinished in a rich walnut stain, complemented by a warm white milk-painted base. Light distressing and dark wax enhance its vintage appeal, preserving its timeless character. A lined drawer, finished with elegant damask paper, adds a lovely touch of detail and practicality. Let me share how I achieved this updated look. before

Ornate Beach Glass Frame



I love frames, they are an easy way to add color to a room and can be used for more then just art or photos. My favorite use is as a sun glasses holder.

The above right ornate frame is the makeover project for this post.


It had a burgundy velour trim as seen above that I carefully removed then scrubbed the frame us well.



While I was painting this sweet jewelry box in American Paint Co's beach glass, I decided to do the frame in the same color.



While paint was just drying I went distressed to reveal the pretty gold under color thru the blue green paint.


To age it further and give definition to the ornate details I used my favorite Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax  (see how it makes things pop on the left where the right is just the paint?)


GORGEOUS!!!


I did a matching frame in Country Chic bliss, which is just a bit greener, these frames are just so pretty, agree?
