Hobby Lobby Table Top Redo

I purchased this cute round table from Hobby Lobby. I liked the owl
but it just didn't go with the decorations in my house.



So I taped around the table and ruffed it up with a little sandpaper. 
I took a flat black paint and sprayed the top.



I hate to sand and the residue that goes with it, so I had my husband sand the top until the colors from below started to show through.



 He then sprayed a clear coat of matte spray on top.


Done!
 Finished and just waiting for it to dry...



 Excited about my new table!

  1. You really changed the overall appearance of this table! I saw this one at HL on clearance and actually put it in my cart, but then I saw another table that was a few dollars cheaper and the original price was higher so I put the one like yours back. Your table has a nice weight to it and I like the way you finished it very much. I plan on trying my hand with Annie Sloan chalk paint sometime in the future with the one I got. Hopefully it will look as good as yours.
