I redid it again a few years ago, stripping the old varnish off and just using a flat coat of poly, so it's basically the natural color of the mahogany. Funny story on the leaves... when my parents bought it at a yard sale it didn't have the leaves. Several years later, living in a different town, I was talking with a friend about the table and mentioned I wished it had leaves, and he said he knew of some in storage that no one was using (no table with them), and they miraculously matched my table, profile and everything! I had a carpenter add apron pieces to the leaves because I wanted to leave them in all the time. So yes, I know the leaves are tricky!Jennifer @ Dimples and Tangleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276037711800319527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500450738339997116.post-25122564008165448722016-03-23T09:31:23.118-05:002016-03-23T09:31:23.118-05:00No worries.

If so, what finish did you use?
