My grandfather was a carpenter. Unfortunately he died before I was born, but my father has kept the furniture he created. One of the pieces was a coffee table with blue glass in the top. A very unique piece. The wood was a silky oak wood, which my father thinks is beautiful wood. Unfortunately, though, in this day and age, blue glass with silky oak wood looks quite outdated. You can see what I mean....
Over Christmas I decided it was going to be my project to reinvigorate the table... I painted the wood white. My grandfather is probably rolling in his grave... but at least the table is going to be used... so the first piece to go in my new apartment... the blue glass table below:
