Ampersand Table Project - A modern update to a tired table

I am almost embarrassed to show the before and after of this project, but it is my most popular Pinterest project to date. As you can see this coffee table has seen better days was in dire need of a little freshening up. So I washed her down with some TSP and gave this baby a good sanding. I then applied 2 coats of Kilz primer to cover all the years of stains and God knows what else. I decided to freehanded the ampersand design because it was just easier than trying to print it and wrap the stencil around the edges. I love the clean lines and typographic nature of this table and now I don't mind looking at it again.
