As promised, (I know it took SO long!!!) my end table is FINALLY done and in place. I did some different things than I did with my console table.
The weather here in South Dakota has been freezing. Everything in my poor garage is covered in saw dust. I've also been SUPER busy with my last semester of school. It feels like I spend my every waking moment studying or working at the hospital. Good news though, I'LL BE DONE IN MAY!!!
Okay, enough rambling, now onto what you actually came to read...
After finishing the table with my homemade stain, I didn't bother sanding it down before sealing it with polyurethane due to the weather. Maybe one day when it's nicer, I can take it back outside and actually finish it correctly. It doesn't look too bad, just not as good as my big table. The surface isn't as smooth as I wanted it to be.
You can find these plans here. I chose not to do the 2x2 X on each side. I decided to mimic the way I did my other table.
When I made my stain, I added a little more apple cider vinegar which made the wood more red.
As I did with my other table, I adjusted the measurements for this end table to fit in the space I needed it to. Not sure what my next project will be, so stop back by later to check it out!
Until next time,
Sarah
