I tried very hard to save it
It was the sweetest wooden coffee table, charming in size and on so many levels already super shabby and chic!
I thought, that I could simply peel back a few layers of wood and then maybe I would find a layer of unaffected dry wood and then it would look super fabulous. As you do! Unfortunately... each layer that I pulled back looked as water affected as the
next, it was also a tad smelly and I had to let it go. Do you think it was a case of wishful thinking?
I have to admit, that I was quite attached to the idea of resurrecting this table and I wanted to salvage it instead of a life of dumpster rot.
The
silver lining is that I have managed to salvage these cigar legs.
I am thinking, that with a good sanding and a new paint job these legs could look quite rad paired with a lil something else maybe. So whilst this
table itself is no success story for The suburban stylist maybe these
legs soon will be!
