I couldn't find any pictures of the before, but here is the outcome from restoring/updating my old ugly coffee table. It used to be all one color, a light brown stain. With the help from the girlfriend, we sanded the whole thing, then I painted the legs white and the stained the top with the leftover stain from the farmhouse table project.
Of course there had to be more to the project than that... I added a power strip, wireless phone charger, and some RGB lights under it. You may ask why does a coffee table need lights. It doesn't. But I recently discovered the blynk IOT app and I was looking for an excuse to control RGB led strip from my phone AND I already had power going to the table. For the power controller I used a nodeMcu that I bought off ebay for 2$ and some mosfets I had laying around. If I were to do it again I would just buy the RGB controller, lot of work for this useless feature(well its cool?)
