It's Just a.....

....Table.

My last post was about preparing for Fall,
so in the meantime,
we have been.

My reliable wood-working-loving hubby
fashioned a smaller version of
a rustic dining table for
Black Rooster Cottage.

The next one will have turned legs and have
a little different paint treatment.

This particular one shall sit outside to weather a little
(it's hardwood so I don't know how that's gonna pan out).

Although this style isn't for everyone,
it is for me!
And, to be honest, I only sell things in my
Boutique that I love and would have in
our own home.





I love making something from nothing.
{Pallets.}

Not bad, huh?

I need a desk with a hutch...
Oh, HONEY!!

Not bad at all Amber, in fact I love it so...I use to have quite a few pieces in black in my home and garden, but then stripped them down and when grey. When I see pieces like yours it gets me wishing I have left a couple of my pieces black!

I am sure it will flair well in the yard to weather, have you ever seen a flat lay out in a junk pile in a market field for years and it still is holding its own. Amber I think if it does age, crack, warp and peel more the better for the look, I know if it were mine I would hope it took on as much weather as possible!

Thank you for your visit and your beautiful comment.
Will see you soon and all you are inspiring for fall...I have been working on pieces for my shop space, and winter pieces for my post and esty .
See you soon.
