As part of my Shabby Chic Foyer makeover I decided to distress my current foyer table instead of buying a new one. I will say it isn’t perfect but overall I am pleased with how it turned and am thrilled to have been able to cut costs by doing it myself. Over the past few months I’ve shared several distressing techniques and this one is very similar to the others only I did a few things different. So I wanted to share a tutorial that shows you how to distress a piece of furniture since most of my distressing has been with smaller decorative items such as picture frames, step stools and wooden signs.
