Coffee Table to Upholstered Bench

 This old coffee table was made by a friend of my mom's.

It's been in the basement. 

But today, 

I'm transforming UGLY to AWESOME!

First I painted the base in Annie Sloan Duck Egg.

After two coats…

I waxed with Lime Wax, 

and distressed the edges.

 Then I cut a piece of foam for the top.

 I'm using this little cotton printed rug I purchased at Homegoods

 to upholster the top.

Once I positioned where I wanted, I flipped,

and trimmed the edges.

 While standing on the inside,

I staple so that the fabric is pulled really tight around the foam.

 The edges are a little tricky because the fabric is so thick.

 Just takes some time………..and concentration.

 But it's done, 

and it looks dy-no-mite!
