Table

Been wanting a little farm table where the girls could eat/draw/sit/play. I couldn't find one I liked/wanted to pay for so decided to make one.
30 bucks later, here's how it turned out:

Loving it. I'd love to make a big one next time...

This is gorgeous and I bet it will last 5x longer than a pottery barn product. Ahh...sometimes I love my children, 10 feet away from me. And it looks like it's distressed so you won't stress about play-dough or magic markers.

Two words: move closer. So I can bask in your amazing-ness. For reals. That is so beautiful! I bet your girls love it. Heck, I'd sit at that table.

Awesome! We were just thinking about the same kind of thing! (We actually saw one at the Salvation Army store in West Mifflin, but didn't pick it up at the time, and I doubt it is still there, though we may go back & look this weekend.)

$30? Let's talk the next time we meet up!
