Best Find EVER!!!

I found this table and chairs on Craigslist and couldn't pass it up.  Six chairs and and table for $70!!!  
 These are a couple of the chairs . . .
 This is the table with the extensions down . . . 
and this is the table with one of the extensions up.  It seats six easily, but could seat eight without a problem.  My only question now is how to refinish it.  There is some slight damage to the table top and I definitely will be putting new fabric on the chairs, but I need to figure out what to do with the table.  Any ideas????

My latest project

I really have several on going projects going right now . . . who doesn't?  But I finally finished this one!!!  I have really wanted a way to display my kids blessing outfits.  I had a piece of left over pine in my garage from a previous building project so I decided to come up with something.  I had a bunch of vinyl I bought about 2 years ago, I think, so I decided to put it to good use.  I used my cricut (can I input here that I LOVE my cricut) and came up with this phrase to put on my board.  After a couple coats of cream paint and four knobs I found for $2.90 a piece and 50% off at Hobby Lobby this is how it turned out!   I still want to find some cute, smaller wire hangers, but for now this works!
