Coffee and Cream

Hmm, my last blog title had the word coffee in it too--perhaps I have a coffee problem?  At any rate, this coffee table started out as this (well a little rougher, this is after some sanding):

I think it was maybe originally a longer sized piano bench because it looks like the table part had storage, but someone had added a plywood top that did not open.  I wanted to keep it simple so plywood top that didn't open it was.  I painted the legs with ASCP in a CoCo. 

I then used the dip and drag paint technique using white, coco, brown and yellow paint. 

Some fairly heavy sanding and stain over it all gave it a warm coffee and cream finish.

The finish reminds me of a Venetian plaster and it is always fun to see how it turns out.  This piece sold right away :).
