It looks just beautiful. I'm so glad you showed the picture of your sanding sponges and that you label them. I'm always getting mine mixed up. Wish they would just come with the grit printed on the sides, but I'll start labeling mine from now on. Thanks for the tip about the X-tender too. Does that work the same as Floetrol? I've only used Floetrol and I wonder if I mix enough in because I still always see brush marks, even with a high quality brush. Maybe it smooths out with the poly. Can you tell us which brand of wipe-on poly you use? And I'm going to add an adjustable stool on wheels to my shopping list...what a great idea! Thanks so much. Hope you're having a great weekend!<br /><br />DebbieDebbie @ MeandMyDIYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16454606067378290761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4325770465476451177.post-38017437176796878012013-03-16T12:13:11.118-04:002013-03-16T12:13:11.118-04:00It looks beautiful!

First of all, I did not know there was such a thing as liquid TSP, and secondly, I wish I had know about the latex extender when I was painting my big hutch because I just could not for the life of me get a nice smooth surface before the paint dried! You are just a font of knowledge, Sharon, and thanks for sharing your expertise. The extra care you give your pieces really shines through.
