My new farmhouse table!
Comments (44)Worldmom-beautiful family! You and your dh look like teenagers, still! I love the story about your table. We are following in your footsteps-needing a larger table (our 11th is due in August). I really like the RH tables, too, but they are out of my budget! :) Hopefully my dh will have time to build our table sometime in the midst of this remodel. Right now, we have the table that my FIL made that my dh grew up eating at. We almost fit at it still... Have you looked at finishing your table with Monocoat, like RH mentions? We used it on our walnut floor in the kitchen, and it is holding up very well-amazingly well considering the use and abuse it gets from our large famiy! I didn't think their clear oil did much for white oak, but they have many colors, too. We used chocolate on our floor. Enjoy your new table! I'm sure you will have many happy meals at it with your family!...See MoreNew pics of my farmhouse kitchen
Comments (49)mtnrdredux, thank you sooo much for that link to the prior thread!!! We are in a similar situation in that there are reasons that we cannot have French doors because of light switches or cabinets/furniture on both sides of the doorway. We also considered the curtains pulled back solution but because we wanted to be able to control sound and preserve the view that didn't work out. The reason we are considering the piano hinged doors is that the wall between the 2 rooms is 12" thick so we have a wide cased opening that I think the door panels could fold flat against on each side. Since the opening is about 57" wide by 8' high, I guess this puts us into expensive custom territory. Sorry for going so off topic on you but your project is very inspirational. It's been a year since we mostly finished and I've been too burnt out to work on final details. Thanks again....See MoreNew to me Kitchen, Need Farmhouse help!

Comments (10)Coming from Chicago, IMO there is nothing worse than a house that has a muddy off color in the dead of winter against all that dirty snow Light Mist and Pearl Gray are meh! Select a color that has some real contrast to the Arctic White trim....See MoreNHBabs z4b-5a NH
