[QUOTE="makenna, post: 170918, member: 2916"]Thanks! The top actually isn't in terrible shape - the blue is the original surface, the peeling yellowish stuff is laminate my grandmother put on to match their kitchen counters :) I'm hoping I can sand down the rest of the metal and I think as long as the cracks aren't terrible I've found a way to fix those too. I'm trying to update it a bit...hoping to spray paint the metal areas gold and put white penny tile on the top. The chairs are, thankfully, in GREAT condition - metal and all - so I am just going to recover the fabric, spray paint the metal and call it a day. EDIT: Yes, I'm planning to keep :) I intend to use it as a dining room table when I move into my apartment this January![/QUOTE]
