I do: restoration

I booked myself for a furniture restoration. It's something I never done before but always wanted to give it a go.

I decided to re-do our coffee table which we bought at car boot sale for £5 and it already had heat/water marks.
stained and scratched table

during striping off
Lesson lasted only 5 hours so I though I'll manage top desk only but then I decided to do whole table. So I unscrewed side wings and striped off the whole thing.

it's original varnish


striped and cleaned with white spirit.
I managed to stripe off the whole table and clean and sand paper the top desk. 
Then I have to decide how to finish it. 
Any idea?
