Pedestal Pub Table

Love the mixture of both metal and wood on this pedestal pub table! My client is renovating her kitchen and wanted to restore her breakfast nook table to complement her new cabinets.

Before, the wood table top was stained with a red undertone. After years of use, and with the help of newly kitchen cabinets installation to knotty alder, my client wanted to change her pedestal pub table to a warm brown stain for contrast.

Refinished in Minwax Specail Walnut was the perfect stain for this project!

Veneer Desk Top

Do you recall yesterday’s custom piece, Three-Piece Computer Desk? To complete my clients home office he wanted his generic veneer office desk top to look as good as his other pieces! When dealing with veneer painting it can leave the piece to look very dull and a solid boring pile of yuck especially on a desk top. There isn’t wood grain, texture or detail.

To change things up I used two colors, the same ones on his other office pieces to tie everything together. Now once what was a simple plain top now has character!
Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Well-Bred Brown and dry brushed with Agreeable Gray.
