Did you go off of any plans?
Yes! We built the table roughly based on these plans from Shanty 2 Chic. We customized the design a bit but these are great plans to follow!
What type of wood did you use?
For this table (and what I would recommend anyone use) is select grade pine for the top and douglas fir construction lumber for base. We purchased all of our lumbar at The Home Depot!
What are the dimensions of the table?
The top is 120”x44”. This is a bit bigger than our last table and it fits the space perfectly.
How much did this cost?
I looked at our receipts and it cost us about $700-$850 in supplies for this table. This includes the lumbar and the stain. We had all of the tools necessary to complete this project on hand but tools would add a significant cost if you don’t already have them.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you can rent tools from The Home Depot! We have done that for tools we don’t use frequently enough to purchase.
How long did it take?
It took me about 40 hours from start to finish!
What stain did you use?
We used Behr Water-Based Wood Stain. It is a three step process and we had a great experience with it. You can read more about the entire process of staining the table here!
We used the color WHITE CEDAR.
What was the hardest part?
None of the build was “hard”per se but the most meticulous part is sanding and filling in nail holes, cracks, etc. The more time you spend on sanding and prep work before staining the better the end result will be – it was worth it!
Savannah – have you found any similar tables available for purchase?
Yes! The closest one is this amazing table from Restoration Hardware.
The other option I found is this table from Macy’s!
Thank you, Kyle for not only building our family this beautiful table but being available to answer everyone’s questions!!
