Table progress.

Natty has been working hard on my table. She's been so kind to give us a little update...

Michelle's table is almost ready to be conditioned and stained! After stripping, I tried several tricks {laundry bleach then oxalic acid} to bleach the stain on the table legs, but to no avail. So it's been lots of hand sanding for me!

I was unsuccessful in finding a stain the color Michelle is going for so I did a little research and decided that it woudn't be too difficult to make my own water-based stain. I started by mixing black and white latex to get a basic gray, then I added a little brown for warmth. Once this was mixed I added water until I reached the desired consistency. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it turned out and how easily it applied.

Only a couple more legs to sand and the table will be ready for my homemade stain :)

Colorful appliances.

Keeping the house clean at all times in case someone decides to drop by for a showing is tough. The most difficult things to keep clean are the stainless steal appliances. Seriously! Clean 'em and not more than 30 minutes later they're showing everyone's finger prints. Retro, colorful appliances are not only easy to keep looking clean, they’re also easy to fix with sites like PartSelect available.

I'm strongly considering something other than stainless steel for my next home.

What kind of appliances would you choose for your home?
