Debbie at Painted Therapy learned a valuable lesson the hard way: “never put wheels on tables; kids will always use them as trains.” After the untimely derailment of her train coffee table, Debbie went searching in the garage for a replacement. She turned this hand-me-down piano bench into a (stationary) coffee table of beauty!
Debbie says that this piano bench was left behind by the previous owners of her house, and now she’s glad she didn’t get rid of it. She grabbed wood from the lumber yard to make a shelf and a new table top, which she built right on top of the old hinged lid. (Such a smart idea!) Debbie used brown and black paint, Vaseline, and sandpaper to create her “shabby look.” This was followed by a few coats of wood finish, a light touch of black paint, and a sealing with polyurethane. Debbie loves that she’s taken this piece “from a wallflower piano bench to a showcase in our living room.”
