Skinny Farmhouse Table

So a friend of mine just moved into an adorable little house and asked me to help her design a farmhouse table for her new dining room. The dining room is long and narrow so we decided to do a traditional farmhouse table and just make it skinnier! 

I think it fits great in the space! Here are a few shots of the table in my messy garage before it made its way over to her house ;) 

On the top of this one I used Minwax Classic Gray and then put Minwax Early American on top. After that I did a light sanding to lighten it up a bit. Love the way it turned out! 

WOW I NEED TO SWEEP.

Turned Leg Coffee Table

Hey guys! Im excited to show you the coffee table I recently finished. This one was actually for MY house! YAY! I got the plans from Ana White - so simple and easy to understand! A pretty cool fact to point out is THE Ana White worked with MY awesome neighbor Jen from The House of Wood to make these plans available! Also I got the legs from Osborne Wood Products and at only $28 a piece (for Pine) Id say you can't beat it.

Here is a "during" photo haha. I am NOT good at documenting the step by step process obviously. But I could not have built this without my amazing Kreg Jig!!! Check them out!!!  ^_^

Here is a little close-up of the color - I used Minwax Classic Gray for this one! I had planned to layer it with some other color, but I like this so much I decided to leave it. :) 

Thanks for stopping by!

Kate Spade Kerryn Tote Review

Kate Spade Kerryn Tote in Pink

I scored this beauty at TJ Maxx a few weeks ago. I saw it, tried not to run too quickly, snatched it up, and haven’t let it go since. ^_^ I absolutely love the color of this tote. It is a gorgeous bright pink! Perfect for spring and summer. (Ok let’s be honest….this color is perfect anytime of year!) The inside lining is black with white polka dots. Shut Up. It couldn’t possibly get any cuter than that! It has a large zipper pocked on the inside as well as two smaller pockets for a phone, etc.

This bag is absolutely the perfect size. It fits my macbook with plenty of room to spare. There is a small button at the top of the bag to keep it shut, which I really like. I Highly recommend this bag! J

Kate Spade Cobble Hill Ellen Review

Kate Spade Cobble Hill Ellen Crossbody Bag

I got this bag because I was needing (…wanting…same thing? :p) a new cross body bag. Sometimes a girl just needs an easy hands free bag! I was immediately smitten by the gorgeous color of this one, I think its called Grace Blue.

I have often wondered if it’s possible to fall in love with leather. I am now pretty sure it’s a legit possibility. ^_^ This bag, by far, is my absolute favorite of the bags I own. The leather is incredible! It is SO very soft. It looks and feels like a very high quality bag, which is what I’ve come to expect from Kate Spade! The 14K gold logo is gorgeous as well as the classic gold chains on the strap. The inside of the lining is a beautiful gold and cream stripe that coordinates perfectly with the soft blue on the outside of the bag.

It is also larger than a lot of cross body bags I’ve owned before. It can easily fit a small wallet, zipper pouch, phone, sunglasses, etc.

This bag – 10+ stars. Its amazing and I’m in love. J
