| This is how my dining room table top looked for a long time. I wish I had a before up close pic but forgot to take one before I used the Fusion Paint. |
 |
| The table legs were a distressed paint and stain look. I wanted the top of the table to be a solid color that would blend well with the frame and legs. |
 |
| I chose Fusion Mineral Paint to use on the top of the table. The color is called Raw Silk. It is ivory/ cream color. Below is the company's definition of this paint. FUSION™ MINERAL PAINT IS A PROFESSIONAL PAINT FOR THE EVERYDAY DIY’ER.With exceptional ease of application, our formulation has high hiding coverage and a built-in top coat, it’s easy to Paint it Beautiful with Fusion™ With over 50 gorgeous colours to choose from, you can tackle any project small or large!What is the difference between Fusion paint and regular paint? |
 |
| It goes on smooth and has a matte finish. |
 |
| It is very durable and should hold up to food spills and water stains. I feel this gives the table a whole new look and looks cohesive to the frame and legs. |
 |
| This is one of the treasures I found on our last trip to Michigan. I actually got this piece at the Found Cottage. I am still working on the space around it on the wall. It is a very cool sign and was actually used at a Church flea market. I have some upcoming changes with some new pieces I have. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Kris |

Beautiful Kris. I'm going to paint our bathroom vanity with this paint. It's great to hear you love it.
ReplyDeleteThe sign is gorgeous!! Is it carved. So cool! It's unbearably hot and humid. I can't stand it
I am in Northern Virginia and it is going to be 92 today and the whole week mid 90's -- yay Summer... I hope you have A/C. Stay cool and perky

I like the solid table top very much. I liked it before, but now is a great change.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great with your floors and chairs.
Your floor looks a lot like mine in my new house.
we are still in the old house and I am sick of down sizing. My goal is to get out of here by the end of..... some time soon... as it is already the 21st, good grief
Kris, that's a beautiful finish to your DR table! I LOVE that St Anthony Church sign! I grew up and went to grade school in St. Anthony parish and grade school. Happy summer!
ReplyDeleteKris, your table looks gorgeous. A lovely transformation, also with a purpose to protect the table. Your new sign is wonderful. Looking forward to seeing what’s next. XO
ReplyDeleteOh I love it. I’ve used Fusion paint and you won’t be disappointed! The church sign is perfect too. Enjoy the weekend. Margy in KY
ReplyDeleteKris, I love the new tabletop color. It looks great. The new church sign is perfect for your home. Happy Saturday!
ReplyDeleteLove the table! This is a product worth checking out. Hope all is well with you and yours. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool sign you found! It's so unique and I love the fact that it was really used at a church. Those are the best treasures. The table looks great. I love Fusion paint. I use it all the time and it actually gets harder the longer it cures. I have it on a few tables and I know a girlfriend (in real life, so I've seen it) who used it on her cabinets and all the doors in her house, with a busy family , dogs and grands. It is durable! Can't wait to see the sign wall evolution! Happy Weekend!! xo
ReplyDeleteYour table looks fabulous! Love your new church sign too! Can't wait to see all the changes you have made.

I really like it better with the new solid color. It just looks 'fresh'. What a fabulous old sign you found. A keeper and I can't wait to see what you do with it. Happy coming week. We are at 100˚ here today with the heat index...ugh....Humidity is awful! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI've seen that paint and it's on my list of things I want to try! It looks gorgeous!
DeleteIt looks great, Kris. I love all your white - my house is the opposite - color color. Some times I look at the beautiful white decor and wonder if I should change???
ReplyDeleteThis paint is new to me, and I love how it transformed your table's top. It looks great! Do you think it is more user friendly than chalk paint? I also love your pretty sign: It is os much fun! You have such a great eye and luck when it comes to finding treasure. I look forward to seeing your other finds, too.
ReplyDeleteThe new look to your table top looks wonderful. I might try using this paint on my already-painted desk top - it needs a re-do and is starting to chip! Love your new sign - very cool find.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I am going to pin this post. I have a table that I have plans for and this will help. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the sign!!
Happy Summer,
Carla
