I am so glad you didn't succumb to hubby and send it to the dump! :D<br /><br />So, question...I have this really cool looking sideboard, currently hanging out around the side of the house, harboring laundry. It has veneer totally peeling up, and I haven't known how to deal with it. Can I just strip it all off? It doesn't ruin it forever? The wood underneath is nice and solid. I am just not sure I will do something drastically wrong by attacking it like that! :D<br /><br />Thanks!muralimanoharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14422995764649985209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675290001384708649.post-82229150329010493422010-07-17T11:45:36.086-07:002010-07-17T11:45:36.086-07:00I love it.
