Stenciled Beauty

I seem to come across a lot of Teak furniture. Unfortunately they’re never in good condition at all, (which might be why I get them so cheap!)  The drawers on this one were all in very good working order so she just needed a little makeup.

It took a lot of sanding to mask most of the deep scratches.  Of course I used my favorite Kilz Primer and then a couple of coats of Heirloom White, (which seems to be my color of choice lately).  I decided to lightly distress it, but opted not to glaze it to keep the light, feminine look.

The final touch was the addition of the stencil.  From ordinary to extraordinary!
