DIY: Farm House Table
by
JCHokie
After searching endlessly online for the perfect dinette table, my husband built one following Ana White's Farm house table instructions. He modified the measurements to fit our space and it turned out beautifully!
The project took around 20 hours total. A lot of it was spent waiting for the poly to dry. We stained twice for a dark look using Dark Walnut then applied 5 layers of poly. So there was a lot of waiting time in between.
We've had the table now for about a week and it is very sturdy and solid. Love having meals at the table. It's a nice change from eating off the kitchen island!
Hope you all enjoy. There is also a matching bench plan on Ana White's site that hubby plans on builds down the road.
