FunKsational Crackle Table

Hello everyone!  I know it's been a while and I won't bore you with why I haven't blogged in so long, but let's just say I've been busy.  (and maybe a bit lazy and unmotivated)

Instead of adding more funKy furniture to my garage, I thought it would be best to first re-vamp some pieces that were generating no interest what-so-ever.

Admittedly, this turquoise coffee table was not my favorite, but I thought it might appeal to someone with an eccentric artistic flare.





That didn't happen.

In comes Val (best sister ever) & (most trusted adviser) who suggests a crackle finish.

Oooooooooh yeah!

I got all of the materials I needed, went to work and, yes......I messed it up.

So it took me 2 1/2 days and a few quarts of stripper to get it back to raw table top.

Then I prevailed...........





I think it turned out super coolio.  Check out a close-up on that crackle.....
