Ok, so things have been really hectic around here for the last year or so. I had this idea that I wanted to work on during the winter, and that never happened.
So 2 weeks ago, I got the crafting itch again, and grabbed that funny looking table from the basement. You know the one... Plain Jane end table with a square top and legs. No personality. White. BORING.
Well, I primed it, painted it black, and have started glueing all of the bands I have collected for this purpose on it. I started with vintage bands that I picked on an auction website for a couple of bucks for a thousand or 10.
The entire top is covered now, and it is predominately gold, which when finished, should reflect light well. I will use my collection of regular bands to add color and pop. Once that is done, I figure a couple of coats of poly and the table top will be done. The legs, I have not done anything to yet. I think I will hand those off to Tank to dremel into cigar shapes, paint them, and reattach them.
I thought of taking pictures after the process was well under way. I do have a second table that I am gonna do up the same way. Only after I finished today, did I think to myself that I should have counted the bands. I know it's more than too.
Anybody interested in step by step pics when I do the second?
