My coffee table project = fail
I found a 4 foot round coffee table for $35. I stripped it, primed it and painted it. Last night I went to go put the last coat of paint on, and I see that it is all chipped up.
There are 2 big chunks missing on the edge of the top, and scratches and scuffs everywhere. I confronted DH by saying "Is there something you want to tell me about the coffee table in the garage?" and he played dumb. Then he finally was like , "Oh yeah....I knocked it over the other day but I looked and didn't see any damage."
ARRRRRGH. I was so furious I was shaking. He says he can repair it with putty but I don't see how. I have looked for a coffee table like that forever - a big round one is pretty rare to find for dirt cheap to refinish. It's not even small enough chips that i can just call it "rustic" it's two giant chunks missing from the top edge.
He's lucky he's so handsome cause boy was I livid.

Can you create new pieces? I guess it's hard to give suggestions without pictures. Haha. I probably have no idea what I'm talking about.
I know I shouldn't laugh because you're upset about it, but your H's play dumb routine cracked me up. Like you wouldn't have noticed!
There's no way it can be salvaged?
Oh, that'd make me crazy!
But you probably can fill it with wood filler and repaint.
My DH set my glass tart burner on the floor... And then set a chair on top of it and shattered it. Moving Fail.
