Difference a Little Paint Makes

I like table much better now

I'll have to take a photo of my iron table. Still have no idea what to do with it, but. . . Grandma's china would look good as a table top on mine.

No time like the present. I went out and shot this:

I think a mosaic table top would look great. A sandblasting and painting would do wonders for it as well. I don't know where it came from or how I got it, but it's been here for dozens of years waiting for the magic to happen.

Nice table Smart Red. I agree with you mosaics are really pretty.

Did it have a glass top originally? That would be beautiful, too. It needs something kind of delicate looking, I think.

I've considered a glass top, but it is for outside and I live in the woods. Most places here are not suited for glass tabletops.

Well Red ... You reaaaally need to have your bouncing baby boy to build you a covered and screened in patio to put your rehabed table under.

Red I like shape of table, legs very graceful. I got a wire disc from dollar store that fix on drill to take off rust. Then Heavy rust primer, paint.

PS Red your table is very in style right now !! Everyone is going crazy for Mid Century Modern ( MCM )

Glass used on table tops has to be thick safety glass $$$$$$$$.

I keep my small glass table with iron on my screened in porch for that very reason.
