Country cottage dinning table

Hi all!
Wow doesn't time fly, I have been working on this small dinning table for some time now and its nearly finished.
It's made from solid pine and is very sturdy. I have rubbed it back and created a milked look for the top.
This was done using watered down white paint and lots of sanding. Thanks god for belt sanders eh!
I then have applied two coats of Cabots clear in satin to protect it.

The base is another story, I first rubbed it back and painted it a green colour but didn't like it so I am now changing it to a cream colour in flat white enamel. I just have to find some tint to get the right cream I'm after.

What do you think so far?



It will be for sale although i think Lucinda had dibs on it? I will post it finished soon ... I hope.
