Living Room to Living Room/Dining Room

Remember these table legs?

Remember this part of a big table.

I wanted a Harvest Table for part of my living room.  

Living small has not allowed me a dining room. 

 I decided we needed something for Terry and I to eat dinner.  I was so tired of eating down stairs in the family room in front of the TV.  

The Expand o Matic table is down there but it is a pain to pull out and set up the leaves every night. 

 That table is better used for a big function or holiday.

Sooooo what is a girl to do?

I figured and re figured the living room space in my head and with moving things around in this room.  

I am a visual person and need to see things!

This is the set up before we thought of adding a dining table.   Two of the big chairs had to go to make room for the dining table.

Terry took the legs and old framing and cut it down to make a long skinny length for the harvest table. 
I loved it. 
We went and got some wood planks thinking we would use them for the top and stain or paint them.

So here is a partial picture of the table in progress.
It still needs the drawers put back in the ends and it needs the top put on and then chairs!!!!!

As you can see my design assistant Buddy was making sure this design was not going to impede his looking out that window to the world going by each day!

I swear in a few days I will have this table done and in its place and the new "old" chairs will be re loved to go around this table.

Then the set up will be figured out and I will have the new living room / dining room done to show all of you.

So many things going on to finish this project quickly.
November 1st already and the holidays on our heels!  Yikes!

I will be back in a few days to show you the finished room.

Hugs,
