This project was supposed to be a Christmas present for my Daughter. This table was a bit of a challenge working with over 100 year old reclaimed heart of the pine wood for the table top. This stuff is not straight, and full of nails. I wanted to make her a family heirloom that she could forever have and pass down to my future grandkids one day. The history and stories that this wood could tell, was more meaningful taking forever to get it done, knowing that she would make her own history and tell her own stories and the wood would live on! So with all of that said she didn't get it till January 2017 and she loves it and now thinks there isn't anything her mom can't do! The heart felt emotions and the tears in my eyes presenting this to her was all worth it all!
