Dining Table

[Cwalker935]

We recently moved mom and dad into a smaller more manageable place. Their old dining set is too large for their new dining nook so I decided to make them a new table. I bought an old window/partition from a local salvage yard. The window has snowflake patterned glass from the 1920's. I bought some unfinished chairs from Amazon, assembled and painted them. I then turned the table legs to match the turned chair legs. We have ordered some tempered glass to put on top of the table. This was a fun project for the most part. However, I do not like to paint so I tried to play the Tom Sawyer trick and convince Lida, my wife, how much fun it was to paint around the irregular glass but she did not fall for it.

That is a great project. Excellent job Cody. (And that's what you get get for marrying a smart woman!).

Great job on the table!! I really like that you turned the legs to match the chairs
It is awesome that the glass is about the same age as your parents. I like the classic snowflake design.

Very nice Cody! The top glass should nicely set it off even more.
