Third Times The Charm

This was one of those projects that had a few transformations before I got it right. 

I needed a kitchen island for very little money. So I found this work bench and this oak tablet top on Craigslist.

My first transformation was green spray paint for the base and just some sanding and waxing on the table top for a natural wood look. I lived with it for awhile, but it wasn't quite right. 

The next time around I spray painted the base white and knew I was getting close. 

After I'd lived with it a little longer, I found a tutorial on little green notebook blog for easy concrete countertops. Perfect! I followed the tutorial and I love how it turned out. -Amanda
