It's always something

So, I like doing projects and sometimes I like to bite off a bit more than I can chew. Thus, why not refinish a table? I have had this green desk for a few years and have always wanted to paint it. But painting didn't seem like the appropriate plan of action.


(Here is the table before, also in our old loft)

I started stripping the paint and realized I liked the wood underneath so I scrapped off all the green paint on the top of the desk. The base would have been WAY to much to handle with all the nooks and turns so I decided not to scrape it.



I painted it a creamy white and then scrapped in a few spots to roughen it up a bit. I think as it gets more wear it will become better looking.



I really love to top, but the verdict is still out on whether or not I like the white paint color I chose? Thoughts?
