Scalloped Top Table Re-Do

I bought 2 of these scalloped top tables off of a Facebook swap site many months ago...I just couldn't pass them up.  They are beautiful, sturdy and part of the Hekman furniture collection (which I didn't know till I got home).  I never intended to paint them the same because they are pretty big and just think they would work perfectly in between two chairs in a sitting area.  I painted one of them many months ago and just finished the other one yesterday!

The top of this one was messed up...so I had to start by sanding the top.

Y'all are going to get tired of hearing about my new knobs that I'm totally obsessed with but after staring at this piece for a while I thought it would look great with just one big chunky fun knob in the middle...so I had to wood fill the original hardware holes.

I LOVE red and have fallen in love with Sherwin Williams "Red Bay".  I still get freaked out every time I start painting a piece red...it always comes out fuchsia!  I actually went back to Sherwin Williams the first time this happened to tell them that they mixed my paint wrong - they assured me that it is red when it drys....they were right:)

That doesn't look RED to me - yikes!

They were right!

AND my favorite part!!

I decided not to distress this piece...I think the color is so pretty and I love the way the dark wood shines through.  I just stained the top, waxed it for protection and she's good to go!

Here's a pic to show the two tables together and how very different they are:)

Hope y'all have an AWESOME weekend!
