Sounds like a fantastic project! Adding cushions definitely gives it that cozy, inviting touch. Fourteen to eighteen hours spread over a few weekends sounds like a manageable pace to get everything just right. As for the table, a walnut top would look stunning—such a classic and elegant choice. A 36-inch circular table would offer a nice, spacious feel, while the 24x48 option could be perfect for more defined spaces. Good luck with the search, and I’m sure it’ll all come together beautifully!
