Fun times, right? Who can forget the spider in the glove, or the tetanus scare?</p>
<p>I know I can&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Here is the before:</p>

<p>Honestly, I still like the rusty look of it. But the after is still rather stunning.</p>

<p>I went looking high and low for a glass top and the cheapest I could find was $80 for a 16&#8243;x 24&#8243; size. As luck would have it, the antique store where I bought the machine had that glass top outside and the owner let me have it for free, since she couldn&#8217;t figure out what to do with it. Totally winning!!</p>
<p>As I was leaving with it, I noticed she had yet another antique sewing machine, everything in good condition except the table. And my eye wandered to it. Do I have a place for it? Do I have a plan for its future use? Of course I don&#8217;t! But it can sure be pretty as a sideboard 😀</p>
