paint on

 We had no problem making the decision to purchase the table-height stand (above) 
at a garage sale a few weeks ago. 
Then, last week, we purchased two full cans of a good quality paint at 
another garage sale.  $8 a gallon!
 After putting the final coat of paint on this table (a thrift store purchase),
my husband turned his attention to painting the Mersman table.
I can't wait to show off the final result!

  1. Oh wow! I can't wait to see. I have my mom's buffet and I really want to paint it. Everyone says no, but I think I am. She would just be proud to know that I was happy and was putting it to good use.

    1. Normally we don't like to paint wood, either...but there are times when it seems like the right (or only) thing to do.

    1. The paint we bought was from a man who was a painter. I'm guessing his clients decided to use other colors. The "whiter" color is called white mint. It is really unusual. Has just a "hint of mint" green in it. I really like it. He'll put the final coat on today...
