Backgammon Your Furniture

Have an old table or stool you are thinking of refinishing? Before you go out and get your sander, primer and paint, consider turning your old piece of furniture into a functional work of art. Chess and checkerboards are easy enough to paint on a flat surface, and if you are up for a little more of a challenge, a backgammon board would be a nice change. The next time your guest and you run out of things to say, kick him off his stool, get out the checkers and the dice, and you have an instant game of backgammon right under your seat.
