I just returned from 4 wonderful days spent in Marietta, Ohio with girlfriends from high school. We graduated from a high school in West Virginia and we are now scattered over 5 states. We have met each year for a girls weekend since 2003. Every year we choose a new place to visit where we can tour historic homes or museums, do antiquing and just talk!! This year we discovered Henderson Hall Plantation across the river from Marietta, Ohio in Williamstown, WV. Everything in the home is original. It was such an amazing collection of history in one place. This is the picture of the winding staircase from the top floor. This isn't a DIY post, but it was a DIY project for someone many years ago! I hope you will appreciate the craftsmanship as much as I did.

Industrial Cart-Style Coffee Table

Hi everyone! I know it's been a long time since I posted but it has taken me awhile to figure out how I wanted to approach the blog world and what I would be posting. After following Miss Mustard Seed, Elizabeth & Co, and Coastal Charm, just to name a few, I am back to give it a go!

I am sharing a project that my husband and I completed in the fall. We decided to try our hand at a version of the popular industrial cart style coffee table for our home. We were in Waynesville, NC for a weekend trip and while traveling through Maggie Valley, I spotted a log home builder with a lumber yard. We made a u-turn and headed back to see if they would sell us some lumber. Well, it was wonderful! We walked the yard and chose some beautiful pine boards, had them cut so they would fit in my car and away we went! We love the table, have since made a second table for a family member who saw our pictures and immediately wanted one. That table is made with pine from a reclaimed lumber business in Beachton, FL.

I am sharing this today on Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesday.
Thanks for stopping by!!
