Hi friends! It's a gray morning here in our little pocket of the world in Northern Virginia - which makes this post just perfect for today! My folks moved to a new house recently and the work they've done on it has been incredible! I've had the pleasure of getting to work on a few projects for them and am thrilled about the ones still ahead! Today I've got a very cheery makeover of a pedestal table which occupies a cozy nook in their kitchen. Loved this project from start to finish!
Indeed, the Cooper Round Dining Table is a beautiful table in raw wood. But how fun it is in the sunny color she picked out, (Saffron by Restoration Hardware, mixed by Benjamin Moore)! I love how the yellow pedestal and the steel top play off of each other! ~Gray and yellow~ one of my all-time favorite color combinations.
Oh, I definitely see myself taking my sweet time to eat some meals there...
Thank you for reading!

My Mom picked out this table from World Market

This little snap of color is just perfect in their light kitchen. Very inspiring!

The low-down:
-Since the wood was super soft and porous, it did not sand very well, (it just pulled up in splinters).
-So I got right down to painting!
-7 coats of Saffron in semi-gloss by Restoration Hardware, mixed by Benjamin Moore
-3 coats of Minwax Polyurethane clear semi-gloss sealer
