Put several coats of polyurethane on it also, and rub between the coats with fine sandpaper,then the brown paper(grocery bag). It will be smooth as glass.Glenda Laceynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031149262012899839.post-74775562213436692482011-12-27T21:34:38.499-08:002011-12-27T21:34:38.499-08:00This is so beautiful!This is so beautiful!The Olsen Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05244041607710438526noreply@blogger.com
