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

Fusion's Bayberry Accent Chair


After and Before ;)


As always start with a good scrub with warm soapy water and a touch of Fusion Mineral Paint TSP.


When dry it is time to paint. It was a cold day here in Alberta Canada so I painted right in my living room. With no VOC, Fusion Mineral Paint is the perfect paint to use indoors.



I was torn between 2 new to me Fusion Mineral Paint colors; bayberry and buttermilk and put out a poll on my Instagram Page.



It ended up a split decision so I went with my middle daughters choice; bayberry.



And it turned out perfect. Such a rich forest green. To deepen it even more and add a bit more durability I added  Fusion's ageing wax.



I am really liking this color and will be using it again!
