Round and oval shapes are better since these shapes have no pointed corners that can harm you and your children. Adding space for extra person is easier in round and oval table tops.

Make a new table top made from tiles. Fit the tiles on the table top and cut the excess parts. Smooth the jagged edge with tile file. With ceramic adhesives at the back, pin the tiles on the table top. Apply grout on the tiles and into the gaps. Let it settle down for 2 days before putting on a sealer.

You can use cloth to create a new table top look. Cut the fabric that will fit the size of the table top. Using decoupage glue, bond the fabric on the table top. Then, put high-gloss shellac for cloth protective covering. Border the fabric on the table top using tacks or cut glass.

To create a new look for your wood table top, try to refinish it. Scrape off the old finish with a scraper, then, smooth it with emery paper. Use polyurethane coating on the table top. Let it dry. Then, apply the second layer of polyurethane coating. Let it dry once more, and then apply the third layer of coating.
