This amazing piece got me so excited when I went shopping with my grandma in California. We hit up her local Salvation Army thrift store. I saw this immediately and fell in love! I have been looking for a bench to refinish for a while now and here was my chance. The price... well.. I worked on the price a little and saved $5 by haggling the manager. YAY!
Here is the before

And the AFTER:

| After |
 |
| I had an oops paint in gray, but it was a little dark so I added some white to the gray.. Perfect color, I think! |
 |
| Distressed and use of dark walnut stain on the areas of distressing. |
The top was in not so good shape and was not level at all. So I asked Mr. S to remove it and replace it. I stained it with dark walnut. I love it! So pretty!
