White Stains on the Coffee Table Be Gone!

Several months ago, my lovely boyfriend put a hot porcelain teapot & tea cup down on our teak mid-century coffee table, and the result was heart-crushing white “burn” marks.

He didn’t realize what was going to happen by that hot teapot, but nevertheless I was soooo upset!  I tried several different things to get the marks off to no avail.  I was mentally preparing myself for having to sand down the whole thing and re-do the top.

However, while visiting my family in GA this past week, I flipped through an old issue of Ready-Made magazine and they mentioned that an iron + cotton towel could solve all my white burn mark woes!

Lo, and behold they were RIGHT!  After holding the hot [dry] iron on each stain for only about a minute, the marks were gone!!

I’m beyond thrilled right now!  I feel as if I accomplished something really big tonight!  Haha.  I hope someone else out there has this same problem, and I make your night just the way that Ready-Made made mine!
