Bombay, India(na)?

Bombay which is now Mumbai.. India(na).  *groan*  OK, that is a stretch, and a cheesy one at that.. so lets just check out the furniture.  Here it is, one Bombay Style coffee/cocktail table that was no longer welcome in our sweet neighbors home.  I think it served as a launching pad for their toddler, so they were glad to see it go..  lucky me!!

Our camera is not one of, high quality but if you are saying to yourself.. I think this looks metallic, well you are right my friend.  

I know I have mentioned in a previous posts about Martha Stewart's Metallic Glaze.  Well I have used it again.  Can't help it, I am learning to live with my addiction and The Home Depot is my enabler. 

Originally this piece was a darker "woodish" color.   Now it is the pride of Seattle Mist and Vermont Slate by CeCe Caldwell's Chalk and Clay Paint.  I also used some Vintage White CeCe's for dry brushing the corners and raised panels.  Clear and Dark Aging Waxes were used.   I like to wait several days before glazing a piece that has been waxed.  I want to make sure the wax has had time to cure.  I also used CeCe's Satin Finish just on the top for extra protection.   Mr. B attached the new hardware and ta-da!  It is finished. 

If you are on the south side of Indianapolis and want to see this piece in person, you can check it out at the Southport Antique Mall.  Look for it and other great stuff featured in this blog in booth 520!

Thanks for reading!! ~ Mrs. B
