Our dining room table (obtained from craigslist when we moved into the house) is getting sticky. The last time it got sticky, we did refinish the top ourselves, but it took months because we are not well coordinated and indecisive. And then after a few years of unsticky bliss, the finish got sticky again and this time, we turned the table 180 degrees and used the unsticky end until it also got sticky (we usually are only 3-5 people, so we usually sit at only one end). And instead of refinishing the table, I covered the entire thing in an old-school oilcloth tablecloth we can wipe down forever. Orange.
Elka so so much wants to be friends with all the deer in our hood. She gets pretty close a lot of the time.
We have a sticky table too. I keep suggesting we refinish it, but it feels too daunting. Maybe a tablecloth is the way to go!
