Mellow Yellow

W

hen I was first offered this table, I didn’t take it because I thought it was beyond repair. It was stained, faded, and dented. I walked away, but couldn’t get it off my mind. After a few minutes, I ran back, and luckily the offer still stood. I tried removing the stains with some sandpaper and was excited to discover as I sanded, the faded paint was lifting, revealing the original color underneath. I put on my face mask and got out the electric sander. The results were stunning. I even like how the metal shows through in areas. Finally, I finished it with about 6 coats of clear protective coating. Funny how furniture talks to you.
