Beach Bungalow Time

I made this table a few days ago.

After completing the building of the table, I realized it needed more structural support so that it wouldn’t sway side to side. So here’s what I did:

I finished one layer of paint, and I sanded the table top once and painted that again.

I decided to just use some white satin paint I had a gallon of already. I decided to use acrylic colored paint that I already had to mix into the white paint to make a color I wanted. I mixed a tiny bit of black, blue, red, and yellow and it came to this light greenish gray color. I kind of wanted it to be more taupe (kind of like the color of driftwood) rather than having the tint of green. But anyway here it is now:

I decided that I need to sand more of the table and do another coat of paint all over the whole table so it is easy to clean. I am going to mix this paint a little differently so that it’s not as green. So I need a bit more red in my paint. I also need to go buy more acrylic paint because I ran out. After I sand it and paint it again, I need to spray some lacquer to seal it up real good (which will also make it easier to clean). So excited for it to get done

What are you up to these days?
