I didn't even begin to try to sand down or cover up the dings, scratches, and nicks that come about over time. Instead, I glazed it all with black paint, and then....magically...the once-upon-a-time "defects" just add character!
I didn't even use craft paint for glazing this time....because I couldn't find it! (Hazards of a home with six children.) Instead I just used some watered down flat-black paint. It worked just great. As you may remember from my side table project, I am all about using what's on hand!

It looks great!!! Your globe is very cool too! Thank you for commenting on my polka dot table. I love to redo furniture. I am following your blog. :)
Love the red! I am so glad I'm not the only one who forgets before pics! Glaze is wonderful for glamorizing defects!
There is no way, absolutely no way, one can tire of red. Nope! Not possible!
