About This Post
"I transformed this boring orange pine coffee table into a farmhouse dream using products I’d never used before. Don’t be scared to try new things! I knew I wanted a sort of barnwood farmhouse look to this table. I sanded the ugly orange pine to bare wood and applied Amy Howard At Home Better with Age which reacts to the tannins and oils in the wood and ages it. It’s a crap shoot what you’ll get and the pine turned a slight grayish color on the grain.
Next I added General Finishes Van Dyke Brown Glaze Effects to the entire piece and wiped away and went back to add more in certain areas to make it darker. Finally I used Amy Howard Cerusing Wax over the top to get the beautiful white variants throughout the wood. The bottom was painted in General Finishes Snow White Milk Paint, lightly distressed and sealed with Polyvine Ltd.
Total perfection!" - CM Restorations
