I took a thrift store coffee table with good bones & shape & had fun with it, first cleaning & sanding, then priming the whole thing. I then masked off the top and finished painting the rest of the piece with spray paint, hand painted details & tinted glazing. I cut & glued fabric using spray adhesive, trimming the edges with a rotary cutter once placed and hammering a wire into the groove around the fabric. the top was masked off & epoxy-resin poured over the entire top. The table has held up to a great deal of use by our kids and still sits in my living room years later.
