DIY: Modern Triangle Table

I've been envying these photos for sometime now on poppytalk. I recently decided to make my own table but I did it a bit differently, still looking for the perfect thrifted wooden tray though.

//BEFORE//
If you decide to do this make sure you sand your surface then clean it of any grit before painting. I painted the entire surface in a white gloss ultra cover premium latex paint from Rust-oleum.
Then I used blue painters tape to tape off triangles.

Then I painted in each triangle different shades of grey and black.
 Then I went over the table with a polycrylic to finish it. 
//AFTER//

I've been busier more than ever lately. I recently had my Graduate school interview and got a second job as a paraprofessional at a school. I've just been trying to get used to the new schedule. I also have some exciting news coming to the blog in a little while. 

Thanks so much for stopping in!

    It looks so good! I like how you used the white paint rather than just leaving the wooden table.

    love the tray too, I want to try making one.
