Table

I'm sneaking another post in this morning to share the side table my sister-in-law, Kristen, made for our apartment. How cute is that?! When I decided to redo our living room last spring, I wanted something different so we replaced a lot of our old box store stuff with handmade and antique. This table was the finishing touch and it's been in the apartment for a little over a month.

I love it. Totally adds character, matches the other wood without being too matchy-matchy and is just big enough for a wine glass to rest without being so big that it collects clutter.

Kristen just started a fun blog (with lots of decor ideas & recipes) and shared a DIY for this exact side table here.

ps : I wish I could reach into these photos and plump that pillow.

pps : marbled lamp tutorial here.

    I LOVE IT. It’s perfect!
    I have a 115 year old 250lb stump that’s 3 feet across waiting for you to get here to do that to! Only we need a chainsaw because I want to quarter it and make 4 little stool/tables. You in?

    I love wood stump furniture! Last year we got two enormous (50cm cubed) oak cubes from my husband’s Danish island home. They way an absolute tonne but they look beautiful, especially as the wood has slowly dried out and cracked. They are currently serving as a stylish TV stand but would make good side tables too I think…
