I don't know why I have a fascination with french furniture but I do. I came across this french drum table at an auction about three or so years ago. Here it is painted a glossy black and would be cream on the leather. A little boy had come along and peeled off the cream paint. I couldn't really get mad because what did I expect painting leather?! So, this is how it sat for about a year and a half. Please don't judge me too harshly. When I needed to fill a little space in my booth, this seemed like a good candidate.
Since ASCP is said to stick to everything, I thought I would throw it on and see how it goes. I painted Pure White first followed by one coat of Duck Egg Blue. I little distressing and waxing. Here is a not so good picture of it in my booth.
Forgive the poor photo. I think I liked it better glossy black if there would have been a way to keep the paint on the leather. But with the super power of chalk paint, it has a new finish and a new home already. Sharing over at:
So pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the color! I have an old table just like that with the leather and was wondering what to do with it... Thanks! By the way, your comment section is not showing up. I had to hit reply to the comment above and then "add a comment" shows up at the bottom.
