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

Removing Graffiti and Restoring Wooden Frame Art Easel

 


This artist easel just needed a good power sand and rehydration of the wood and it is ready to get creative once again.



I recognized the name of a good customers daughter once I had a good look at the easel so shared with her I now had her easel. It was also her nephew too who left his mark.


It was given a good power sand with my Festool orbital sander on all the frame surfaces.


Ah, much better


The wood was rehydrated with Fusion furniture wax. It absorbs into the wood easily then the excess wiped back leaving a soft smooth finish.


and just that easily it is back looking good as new, ready to let the little ones create.


This side is a dry erase board


With the other side a chalkboard. There is also a wooden dowel that holds paper to go over the frame for painting and other crafts.
