Hi,
I have found a couple of sites for you that could help you out. The first one gives a good example on how to get that wood finish on a table. http://www.diy.com The other shows you a picture of a faux painted fire place. They used timber molding the give it a great look. http://www.metroplitanmdg.com/furniture.htm . Hope this helps you out. Noelene
