| Sad looking table at my front door. |
.
 |
| I needed a new top as the old one was weathered beyond fixing. I purchased a 30" round table top from Menard's for around $30. |
 |
| Sanded the top a bit and then painted it white with acrylic outdoor paint |
 |
| The rest of the paint is acrylic craft paint from Hobby Lobby. |
 |
| I had a basic sketch of the design, but I found as I painted it evolved. |
 |
| I was challenged by the large green leaves and how to make them look finished. |
 |
| Tried several ideas for veins in the leaves, but then settled on adding the white centers. |
 |
| To which I doodled and painted. |
 |
| Finished! |
 |
| I coated the top with a satin spray on polyurethane, but I think it may need a more durable product. |
 |
| Reused the legs from the old table... |
 |
| ...and changed out the chairs. Now to add some for flowers and stitch up some pillows. |
