Another Reason My Dad is Great

Not only is he an amazing grandfather, he built this....

A black walnut sofa back table. It is waiting to be adorned with goodies and hardware. I want the stain to dry a little longer but couldn't wait to show you it.
Love all of the texture and variation in the wood. Thank you Daddy...I will love it forever.

Beautiful! I love when things are made out of wood, and built to last forever. My husband built our dining room table and I'm never changing it! Thanks for sharing your wonderful table with us! Your dad did an awesome job!
