I have a confession. I finished a table today that has been in the works for almost 3 months! Ugh... But with a side of "ahhhhhh". I have so many visions for tables and I just don't have space or time to complete them so when one gets finished it is such a relief I almost take a nap afterwards. When I finished this table today I went inside, got a chair, tea, and phone and sat with feet propped up. As to say "job well done body, job well done.". LOL. I am so sore. I have to give mad props to my husband for helping me because when I took on this project I did not take into account how heavy it would be and that I would not be able to complete it by myself. So happy with my choice in a strong husband today. ha!
Anyways, enough talk, here is the table.
I love the look of it and get so excited about furniture! I will admit I did sit and stare for awhile after it was done. There is something so beautiful about turning stacks of a wood pile into what you see here.
The stain on this table is the vinegar, steel wool mixture.
Awww...I am in love with the finish. Even if it did take a 5 step process. Yes, those are 6x6 legs!
So there she is and now listed on our Etsy shop page HERE. Of course it is only for local pickup or delivery. I am going back to resting as tomorrow is complete orders day! Thank you to all who have supported Rustic, it means so much to me and my family!!!

FEELING FAMOUS
WAY TO GO RUSTIC HOMEMADE!!!
For the full article visit HGTV GARDENS
At first I read it and thought...."a DIY project?!!!?" Come on HGTV! LOL. But I can't help but feel proud and positive when I read my business name on a blog post. It drives my passion even further and gives me the boost of positive reinforcement that I probably need more then the people around me think I do.
This is the reason for the post, to remind myself to see the positive and not the negative, which has been my motto lately. I am happy where I am with Rustic and very happy about where it is going. I am so lucky to be able to do something I am so passionate about especially after the long 2 year journey that got me where I am today.
The dice that we sell in our shop can be found HERE
