Debbi here. I have my great grandmother’s oak claw foot table. It has witnessed 115+ years of my family’s joys and sorrows, teething marks, dings and scratches and we are still making memories as we eat our meals on it everyday. It is one of my most precious possessions. I LOVE your channel and your artistry, but I am really glad you chose not to repaint this lovely old lady.

What a treasure! I actually have a table like this. Same hand crank, same thick base. My grandparents gave it to me in 1986. They bought it at an estate sale in the late 1950s. I do have the two extenders. My top is in need of a refresh. 32 years of family life has done a little damage.

I did a double take because I have an extremely similar table in my dining room. I rescued mine from my father in laws lake cottage in Northern Maine. The wood was pristine, but nobody would eat at it because the finish was stickier than a toddler with a jar of honey. The finish was also a very dark walnut. Your find came out beautifully!

I love, love, love this tiger oak table!! I really enjoy your flips, especially when you can restore an old piece like this one to its former glory!!! 👑It reminds me of my great-grandparents' golden oak table that has been in our family since around the turn of the 20th century. My sister had it refinished, and it is gorgeous!! I don't know how the crown got in my post, but you are the queen of restoration, in my book!!

Looking at this piece and HR Home, I would have placed 1/2" wood bars vertically on the base spaced slightly apart. I love to look at your work but do not do any restorations/makeovers because I am bed-bound. I love to look at the most expensive popular furniture stores latest styles and colors very closely and then look at your pieces before any work is done.I can see very clearly what that piece might be able to look like on a high scale. Your work is absolute perfection. Your teaching is off the scale and you make it look so easy. Thank you for giving back to your community.
