A dining table sanded back and treated with Cabot's water-based stains.
The project
I transformed my huge extendable dining table. I started the project in October 2021 and finished in March 2022. This project took me the longest. My other projects didn’t take as long, as they were completed throughout lockdown. This dining table really exhausted me. It was really challenging but so worth it.
I’m also happy I kept the shadow line. I sanded all the dark brown away. Once the sanding was done, I applied Cabot's Acorn water-based stain and followed with Cabot's clear matt water-based stain.
