Our Fancy X Farmhouse Table

We had been looking for a dining table for our new house that is being built. The dining area is a little small and we needed to find a 60 inch table. However, we were unable to find one that we liked at that size. I found plans for this table through pinterest and thought it would be a lot of fun to try. Plus, we knew that if worked out, then we would be saving a ton of money. The plans call for a much longer table, so my husband and dad reworked the plans to make it fit our space. To go with it we bought 4 Lyle Side Chairs from Crate and Barrel. We love how it turned out and we can't wait to see it in our new house in a couple months!!

Estimated Cost
$200.00 (however, we bought tools that we didn't already have on hand)
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
We used an outdoor, semitransparent, Olympic-brand stain from lowes, called Driftwood Gray. It has a very subtle gray color to it that is not as obvious in the pictures.
