Janis, don't you have anything that needs to be refinished? I might just as well refinish something while I'm there! How are putting the vinyl down? Glue? Or do we have those click and snap?

A rootbeer float sounds delicious to me too! Yummy.

I had told Mau about 2 end tables that I just refinished. I'll put a photo in here so she and everybody else can see how good I am ;p These 2 were what I'd call a honey pine color. I stripped them, put on 2 coats of red mahogany stain and about 6 coats of poly. First 3 were a wipe on furniture poly that looked awful. So I went with what I usually use, Polycrylic to get the look they are now. I changed out the knobs on both...the one on the left was a wood knob, the other was a ceramic. I've never cared for the tables as they were, so I thought I'd try and class them up a bit. The one on the right has drop leaves, you can have it as shown in the picture, drop one and leave one up, your choice on which one you drop, or you can drop them both down.
