New Entry Table (Finally)

This post is for the peeps that I told about my entry table and now I'm finally documenting it. I'm a little sad that I didn't take any pics while I was building this bad boy. (Well, I took one on my phone before I painted it.)

So, here is the story. After moving to St. George, I really, really wanted a new entry table and some new couches. (more to come on the new couches some other time) I checked Craigslist every day, and none of them really stood out to me, or they were WAY overpriced. I didn't know what to do about buying one because they are way to expensive in a furniture store.

One day I was venting to my friend about my entry table dilema to one of my friends who lives here. She said, "I have a friend who builds stuff like this all the time in her garage, and she has all the tools." I talked to girl and she was very willing to help me build my own entry table.

The next step for me was to find a table that I liked. Ana White's blog was the perfect place because she has all the details and plans to tons of different wood projects. I found one that I liked, printed the plans, then headed over to get some help.







After buying the wood at Home Depot, it only took 2 days to build this awesome entry table. I customized it a little bit to make it taller, but other than that, the plans were perfect. Then I spent day after day sanding painting, sanding, painting, glazing, sanding, and painting until it was finally finished. I'm so happy with how it turned out!
