Notice I finally ditched my point and shoot camera! No more blur!
I used the vinegar treatment to age the wood and then put one coat of poly on it for a little protection without making it look too nice. Shayne loves the pieces at her shop to look "crusty".
I dry brushed 2 coats of white on the apron and legs, heavily distressed it and then used Ebony stain to glaze.

What do you think? Glad I finally finished something? School.must.start.soon!
