What are Some Tips for Painting Wooden Table Tops?
Painting wooden table tops can be a fun way to give new life to an old table. You can use dining, coffee, and side tables to go in any room. If you don’t feel comfortable painting freehand on the table top, you can use stencils or just daub on polka dots. One type of painted table idea that is great for a family room or game room is a table with a painted checker/chess board on the top. This would be especially ideal on a table that has a drawer to hold the checker and chess pieces. When painting wooden table tops, use two coats of paint for the main color and craft paints for the designs. Finish with a coat or two of polyurethane or other acrylic coating.
