Gold Table Tutorial

I had this old table in my room. It has a pretty carved design on the side and top. It was a brown color, but the color of the table was faded and the table was in sort of bad condition. I thought I would spray paint it gold to freshen it up.

Supplies:

• Old Table: You can use any table or old piece of furniture you have. My table is sort of odd shaped and has a carved design in it.
• Spray Paint: Choose your favorite color. I wanted to update my table from brown to gold.
• Newspaper or Drop Cloth: Use something to cover your ground so you do not get paint everywhere.
• Sandpaper: The sandpaper will be helpful for wooden tables to help smooth the table.
• All Purpose Cleaner: Use your favorite all purpose cleaner or disinfecting wipes.
• Cloth

Instructions:

1. Lay out newspaper or a drop cloth on the ground. Place the table on top.

2. Use sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges of a wood table. Wipe off any dust or dirt on the table. Use an all purpose cleaner on the whole table.

3. Start by spray painting either the bottom or inside. Shake the can and hold the can about 6 inches away from the table as you spray.

4. Use a couple layers of paint until you get the desired consistency. Let dry overnight before using.

I like how it turned out. The gold makes the designs and carvings in the table stand out more so you can see the artwork better. Let me know if you’d like to see more interior design type of tutorials in the future. How do you like to update your furniture
