We actually have the same table that was given to us, the top isn't raw, its white but it has a mark in the middle of it (hence why it was given to us) and i've been try to work out which way i want to go with re doing the top You could definitely fluid art the top but if your going to only do the table it is a little pricey for all the bits and pieces. What about contact or wall paper and spray it with a sealer?? Bold Living Acreage build, Scenic Rim QLD - Slab Stage 654May 29, 2018 2:22 pm dillongl That looks amazing! Did you add silicone? Just googled fluid art and there are a few ways to do it! Thanks it was stupid amounts of fun (until I had to clean up ) I found that too and was a little over whelmed. I used flotrol in my acrylic paint (I brought 500mm sample pots for $8.50 at Mitre10 as it’s cheaper than tube acrylic) I also added a bit of water to get the medium right I then added silicone. So I had to think outside the square there as we live in a country town I don’t have things at hand. bunnings is a 50 min drive one way so I brought pure silicone based lubricant I put a few drips into the paint (individual colours) and a few more drips into the dirty pour cup (I did the table with a 2 cup dirty pour) once the paint was on the table top I did a little titling and then got the butane torch out to open up the paint cells and then let it dry. Definitely give it ago it’s really enjoyable, I did a couple of pots and a canvas and will do a big print too Re: Bold Living Acreage build, Scenic Rim QLD - Slab Stage 655May 29, 2018 4:06 pm Oh i like the idea of a canvas! Yeah i'd just be doing the top of mine. I was thinking some contact paper would be the easiest way to do it... probably less of a clean up too haha would love to see your canvas Re: Bold Living Acreage build, Scenic Rim QLD - Slab Stage 656May 29, 2018 5:57 pm CC7 Oh i like the idea of a canvas!

I’ll post some pics tomorrow when I do some more painting. Kmart have marble contact (I have some stashed in the cupboard) you can also buy some awesome ones online too.
