Found: coffee table

My cousin's dad found this lovely coffee table for her for FREE (my favorite kind of price). Sometimes when things are free they aren't in the best shape....our gem had neat features like the name "BRETT" carved in it. Thank goodness for sandpaper.





Today we did a little refurb project on it, sanded it down with coarse, medium and then fine sandpaper to ensure that it was nice and smooth, which made it look like this:



We then used a wood conditioner (because it is not hardwood) and let it sit for about 10 minutes before applying the stain.

Here is it all finished up, looking pretty great :)
