How to Choose the Right Oak Dining Room Table
Upgrading your home from college crash pad shabby to grownup chic can be an exciting process. The cost of high quality furniture, however, can be rather intimidating. Here are a few suggestions on how to choose an oak dining room table that will compliment your home for decades to come.
When choosing your dining table, there are several important factors to consider. Your dining furniture needs to be the correct size for your dining room, a shape that is attractive for the shape of the room it will be used in, and a style that reflects your personal taste. Budget is also an important consideration when making these decisions.
Start by drawing a layout of your dining room in scale. Using graph paper to do this will make the job easier. You can include the chairs and other pieces of furniture to get an accurate idea of what the room will eventually look like. Don't forget to draw in pencil so you can make changes as you go along.
Current recommendations are to choose a table similar in shape to your room. If you have a square room, a square or round table is appropriate. For a longer room, you can choose rectangular or oval oak tables. Remember that round or oval tables seat more people in the same amount of floor space than a square table would.
Not enough thought is given to the size of the table. Often people choose tables that are inappropriate for the size of the group that will be seated. When seated at the table, diners need close to two feet of space each to avoid overcrowding. If you are going to have varying numbers of guests, consider an extendible oak table. You will be able to seat your immediate family while it is in its folded up state, but expand it to serve all of your company at the same table. Whether you choose a fixed dining room table or extendible table, you need to ensure that there is a minimum of 2.5 to 3 feet available for walking around the perimeter of the table.
Once the size of the table has been chosen, the next step is to decide on the style. People are no longer limited to simple styles, the selections are limitless. Some popular styles of tables include Amish, mission and pedestal oak tables. Searching online will help you to learn about different options and will give suggestions on which type will look best with the rest of your furniture.
It generally pays to get the best quality furniture that you are able to. In this case, solid oak is the most durable option. Compared to materials with shorter life spans, such as pine or glass, making sure to buy oak will guarantee you a table that lasts as long as your home. Whether you choose to purchase a fixed table or an extendible table depends on your entertaining needs.
Keeping size, shape, style and budget in mind, you can choose an oak dining room table that will be the highlight of your dining room and serve your family for decades to come.

How do you refinish an oak table?
We inherited an antique oak pedestal table, and there's damage to the top surface -- looks like just years of wear and tear, plus one very small black, gouge. The pedistal actually looks good, except that the finish seems hard-looking and shiny (if that makes any sense.)
I am needing to know what products to use and how to select a finish that will look the best. The current finish is on the dark side, with black, blonde, and reddish coloring.
I have never refinished anything, and I fear that my impatience will produce an awful result, not to mention that is't really hot outside, and I would need to move the table inside and outside to dodge thunderstorms.
Thanks to anyone with experience, who also tends to hurry through projects.
If it's solid oak, not just a veneer, you can tear into it with a sander. Unless you want it to look antique.
You might consider getting it valued, as refinishing it may lower the value, if it is a real antique.
You can cut through all the damage quickly across grain, then finish with the grain with an orbital or belt sander with finer abrasive until all the sanding marks have gone.
Try some stain on the underside - it never looks like what it does in the store. Or get some slivers of oak to test the stain on.
