The day before I left last summer dad and I walked down to the shed to take a look at an old table and benches that had been collecting dust for quite some time. I have a thing for benches and solid wood tables!!! As I looked at the way too dark finish, I had visions of Mark and Janna's dining room set flashing through my brain, with the black bottom and mahongeny top. "Yes, I want them!!!" When would I sand and refinish them, or how would I get them 1000 miles away didn't even cross my mind.
Well, mom and dad shared my vision and knew that children and term papers came before sanding and beautification. They sanded and resanded, they varnished and sweat and fretted over whether I would like it. Well..........I LOVE IT!!!! Look at this masterpiece now....
And it fits so well in my dining room that was totally bare just a week ago. That treasure was sitting in the shed, now it is once again being used and loved and admired. Thanks mom and dad!!!!
We are thrilled that you like it! Lots of work, but worth every second. Sure love you FIVE Buschkins!
