My Table is Finished

Before
After



When I first started this blog I think I mentioned that I was in the process of refinishing our kitchen table. Well, it's finally done! Instead of buying a new table I thought I would save us some money by redoing our old one and I didn't think it would be to hard. Man, was I wrong! After sanding and de-glossing everything, it took 3-4 coats of stain to get it as dark as I wanted it. In the picture the table looks kind of black, but it's a very dark walnut. After all the staining, then I had to varnish every piece several times. Now I have to refinish my hutch to match. Next time I'm buying a new table!
