Some easy tips to refinishing antique furniture!

I found a beautiful french provincial table and 6 chairs at an estate sale in excellent condition. No scratches or dents just a worn finish. I used several MinWax products to remove the old finish and stain/seal a new one. It worked out really well and I love the new color. The table base and legs will be painted white along with the chairs but they aren't finished yet. Procrastination wins again! I just thought I'd share how I refinish antique furniture and see if anyone had any recommendations for other products or techniques out there!
