How’s that for a dramatic title? The table that Jesse and I have been working on is finally ready for his blog debut!
I’ve got a ton of pictures and a whole how-to ready to go, but today will just be about the pictures.
Isn’t it beautiful? I’m seriously in love!
I love the dark walnut stain that we used on the table top. I pet it, a lot.
And of course I had to pull out some of my dishes and make a faux table setting. Well kind of. I didn’t have enough clean glasses or silverware to finish haha.
I’ll have my how-to post, plus details about the chairs and other table related things on Friday. Today was all about the eye candy.
So who wants to come over for dinner?
It’s beautiful!! Something you could buy at Pottery Barn, but I’m guessing it was much cheaper than that. I really like the chairs, too.
It was so much cheaper! I’ll have a price breakdown and a tutorial of sorts up on Friday!
This looks lovely, we have chairs like this and I am trying to persuade Rodney to paint them but he isn’t convinced, so I will show him this pic as more evidence that it looks awesome!! xox
You definitely should! I’m actually planning on painting them all solid white as soon as its spray painting weather again.
Beautiful!!
The table looks beautiful – Great job! I’ll be over for dinner on Saturday
Sounds good!

Oooo, it’s so pretty!!! I love the chairs paired with it and it fits perfectly in your dining room!!

Oh, she’s so pretty! I know, tables don’t have a gender, but…. I love it! Makes me want to do something different with my table. Like embrace the ridiculous Formica table top. Sigh.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! I cannot believe that is DIYed! Like, I refuse to believe it. Just kidding!
You guys did such an amazing job! Seriously amazing!
Hahaha! Believe it! I’ll be sharing details on how we did it and a cost breakdown on Friday!
Looks great guys! You should be proud of yourselves! I was wondering when we would hear about this table…

Absolutely love it! That’s something I’d want to do when we buy a house!
LOVE IT! Seriously! You guys did such a great job! It totally doesn’t look DIY-ed! I love the colour combo you went with and the white chairs look great!

Did you take the photos with your new camera??
I did! I’m definitely still learning but I love using it so much more!
Oh my goodness, it’s so beautiful! The grain and finish on the wood is absolutely perfect. You both did an awesome job!
Me! I’ll bring a bottle of wine and happily sit at that beautiful table and pet it as well
. That is a stunning table. Job well done!
It’s beauteous! I love the dark wood planks on top and how the rest of the table is painted white. Very impressive!
I’ll be right over and I’ll bring the wine!
Love the plank top – you guys rocked it!

Love it!!! I have a similar project in the works. Can’t wait to see your tutorial so I can compare with what I am planning on.

Your table is beautiful and I think we are going to copy you… Have been looking at plans to make my own. I do have a question though- have you found that crumbs get stuck in between the cracks? Or does the polyurethane make it all smooth? We have kids so I just want to find out before we start…
I haven’t had any problems with dust or crumbs yet! We plan on using another coat of a thicker poly when it warms up which I’m sure will help with that too!
I also throw a table cloth or sheet down if we are eating something super messy or making crafts on the table, just in case
