Inspired By A Rustic Plank Table Top | Themed Furniture

Blue Reclaimed Wood Plank Top Table

Today’s project is a blue reclaimed wood plank top table made from bits and pieces found at my favorite junk shop.

It’s that day again.

The one day of the month where a few of my friends and I get together and do a furniture project based around a theme.

The theme this month is “Inspired By”.

That means our paint projects are inspired by something we saw on a website, on Pinterest, in a shop, etc.

  My wood planks aren’t the same color but you work with what you have.

I purchased the reclaimed boards and table base from My Favorite Junk Shop.

I bought them on separate shopping trips.

While gazing at the mess in my workshop I realized the blue boards and the table base would look great together.

We had great weather that day so we decided to make the mess outside…not inside.

cleaning and prepping wood Petticoat Junktion

I sanded the loose paint and cleaned the boards with Simple Green.

I set the table base outside to paint too.

I used a semi-gloss white which happened to be the only white paint I had on hand.

securing boards to a table base Petticoat Junktion

I was joking around with the JTS while he was securing the planks to the table top.

That’s why he has that little grin on his face.

I’m pretty funny sometimes Smile

I did a little distressing on the base.

Just to be sure the paint didn’t continue to flake off I put on two coats of polyacrylic.

hearts love theme Petticoat Junktion

I did proclaim this love week…..hence the hearts and red garland.

Have a great day , Kathy

    Techical questions: Did JTS countersink the screws?
    I like the pretty screw heads — they don’t appear to be a regular star type. Can you please tell me the name of this kind of screw head and/or the type of screwdriver needed for them? Thanks!
    I enjoy all your makeover photos.

      Thanks for the question Lola. He did countersink them and they are plain old drywall screws!

    I like it!!! I think it looks Scandinavian. The table base didn’t look like much before–just begging for distressed white paint.
