... thought I'd show off some work I did on my teak to inspire you to rework yours. It's actually really cheap. About $40 worth of stain and varnish (MinWax Color Golden Pecan).

Nice work ! Very professional !

I built a similar replacement table and shelf arrangement several years ago but not quite the handiwork look of yours. But I got rid of the leg support by making it a suspended table...I had my reasons.....which you can check out on my website and clicking on the appropriate link along the left side of the website's opening screen.

Beautiful work! Did you recover the cushions too? I'm thinking about recovering mine, and that looks like good quality fabric. Where did you get it?

Yes, I recovered the cushions in the main galley. I bought fabric at Fabric Land and sewed them together myself. The key is not to get rid of your old fabric, leave it on there... recover a layer on top.

I machine sew the two small sides (box corner) and the front side, then I hand stitch the back. I can do all cushions in a single night in this way. I'm not a good sewer, these cushions are the only thing I've ever sewn.

Total cost was about $200 CAD. That was enough fabric to cover all cushions twice.
