New again!!!





I wrote a post in Jan. about getting a new table for xmas.I absolutely love my table.Well,in our house it is hard keeping things looking new for long!!!! The table got some scratches ,which is ok but then disaster happened.My husband took off a plug in from the outlet and left it on the table. The scented oil leaked and ate away part of the finish.I was so upset because it was a present and I was having a bad day.I basically whined about it for a while and then the kids gave different ideas to fix it.My boys said I should paint it.I was thinking I would refinish it, but I ended up painting it black and adding 4 layers of shellac to protect it.Here are some pictures of the ordeal and the finished table.
