I’m Dreaming of a Farmhouse Table….

Sing it with me my friends….I’m dreaming of a farmhouse table…
Rolls right off the tongue right? My mom had some friends build her a farmhouse table last week….and oh my word, I am JEALOUS. It still needs to be stained, but it is perfection. 
I’m so jealous that I may have convinced her friends to build me one too. I’m crossing my fingers they don’t think I’m crazy. And in the meantime, visions of farmhouse tables dance in my head.

Drool worthy.

LOVE that it looks great with my chairs!

Anyone else as smitten as I am?

    I think it's the perfect Christmas present! If we weren't planning a nursery I'd be asking for one myself!

    There isn't room in my house now for a farmhouse table but I'm planning the dining room in the house we're going to build around one! I personally think they're timeless and so perfect! I love the plans for this table (http://www.forrent.com/blog/contests/our-dining-room-table-guest-blogger) because it's large enough that I can seat my entire extended family at it for a big holiday meal! Ah can't wait!

    Oh I am smitten! But before we build one we need to finish:
    -redoing our deck (almost done!)
    -making the halloween costumes
    -building a play kitchen for the boys for Christmas
    -and the list goes on. So for now I will just dream the dream with you!

    Love that your mom has friends that can MAKE a table! That's even better than just getting one! Hope it works out that they make you one too ๐Ÿ™‚

    Umm yes so gorgeous!! Also, just thought you needed to know that I used your collage wall instructions (of drawing out each frame/object on paper first and taping them to the wall) on my hall this weekend and it was so helpful!! My husband said I now have to do that for everything I hang like that because it made his job (of actually hanging the stuff) so much easier!

    Yes! I have been lusting for one from Restoration Hardware for a couple of years. Alas, we have no space for it. I hope they do build you one too!

    Me too!!! I think I have pinned every farmhouse table I have come across on Pinterest, it's a slight addiction. I found someone who can make me one on Facebook, but I haven't sold Chad on the idea yet. Wish me luck!!

    Yes! I'd love a new table for when our littlest outgrows a high chair and joins us at the big table. These are gorgeous!

    The table looks great, but I'm not sure about the chairs. The chairs are lovely, but not with the table. At least for me ๐Ÿ™‚
