My goodness ladies, it's just a table and probably very portable and cleanable or it wouldn't have been used in the first place. When I found out quality sewing scissors were better then regular household scissors and everyone wanted to use the good ones, which frustrated me but didn't I want to use the good ones too?, I bought more of the good ones. No one bothers my scissors because they are exactly like all the rest of the scissors in the house. Frustration gone.
