Rustic farm-house table

Here is a new piece ready to go to the Beeton Honey Fest this May 23rd - it's just around the corner! 

 This is a really fun table that has a pretty charcoal-painted base and the entire top is rough-cut, reclaimed oak and pine boards (I scrounged them out of my parents' barn last weekend).  The boards were cleaned and cut to fit the table base (which had long since lost it's top - sorry I didn't take a before picture), and after a little more TLC, the top was ready to be fastened to the base.  My dad had some great antique nails he'd been collecting, and he graciously parted with them as we thought they would lend a nice touch to the very time-worn wood and the overall feel of the table. 

 I think it turned out well, and it would look great not just in a country kitchen, but as a sideboard, dining table, entryway console - anywhere you'd like a rustic touch.

Here is the finished farm-house table!





Beautiful reclaimed oak and pine.









If you look closely at the table base, there is a "hole" - this table base was meant for a harvest table drop-leaf set up, but I kind of liked the simplicity of a plain top and no drop-leaves.
