By Victoria Larsen I'm a thrift shopper... OK, an "addicted" thrift shopper who found a solid wood, oval coffee table for just $10.00! The varnish was cracking and peeling off, it had scratches and dents and the finish was completely faded and un-even... but the wood was solid and the construction was great so I hauled it home.... After stripping off it's very dark finish, I gave it a good sanding and re-stained it. But you know me, I can't leave anything plain... I took one of the designs from our "Raised Plaster Small Designs #2" stencil and stenciled it across the oval edges of the table. With a little artists brush, I then hand painted small gold vines all the way around the outside edge of the table and connected them to the design I had stenciled. Two coats of varnish later and my new table is the perfect addition to our home in Idaho. Can even YOU tell that it's not a NEW table that might fetch $300-400.00? Neither can anyone else!
