I can now sit and ponder life...

My table has been painted and installed and now I can sit and eat, study, play games or just ponder life.  I love it!!

I painted the top of the table because it was really rough and a baby blue color that just didn't fit.  I was a bit fearful that painting it would make it too easy to get scraped up from everyday use so I put six coats of polyurethane on it.  LOL maybe a bit excessive but I feel better.

I also changed the old leg out and added supports to it and put a stabilizer for it on the floor.  I am really happy with the end results. 

I was able to finally cut the holes bigger in the cabinet front I made over the dinette.  Then I was able to put the doors on.....It looks so classic!!

Ok so I ran into a bit of a problem...my pattern choices are a a tad too bold and are competing with each other.  I love the cushions and not willing to change them so I decided the only choice is throw rugs and possibly solid color pillows and curtains.  Stay tuned to see how that makes a difference to this...

Ugh I am not happy but I will figure it out!
