In the mean time, I bought to 2 stencils and was excited about the "finish work."




We brought it inside once all the sanding was done so I could stencil in comfort. Once the stenciling was done, I painted the edges black and then took it outside and finished it with shellac. I am really excited about our new patio table that is bright, fun and springy! It will also be very functional when we pull the BBQ out of the garage this spring!
