I have a pretty Indian table cover that is usually used to put over tables during celebrations... I use it all the time though. BTW, I like the remodeled piece better than the original!

I think I'll try to save it. Maybe if I replace the handles that will help too. I'd much rather save the money than spend it right now! Thanks, ladies! I think I’ll try to save it.

Also, if you have some sandpaper, you could sand the edges down a bit before you paint/stain. I think it looks great, don't be so down on yourself. :) I agree with K-money and Miss M — just a little paint or stain and it’ll look great!

Then they would blend in, I don't think it looks bad. It was too tall relative to its width before, just stain those little bits and it will be fine.

That little bit better may help you have less of an urgent feeling to get a new one.
