No Lovely List this week! But I am going to do a V-Day card roundup later in the week, so check back!
I wanted to post about this amazing tutorial over at The Little Red House! Sheena, who also happens to be a super talented photographer, created her own Farmhouse Table. Genius, right?! I am so doing this one day!
She started with a plain dark wood table purchased from Target's Global Baazar for $50. After purchasing + distressing wood planks from Home Depot, she created a weathered-wood look with a homemade stain, which she made by soaking steel wool in vinegar- incredible!
The whole table cost less than $75 to make. Isn't it beautiful?

i have the DIY ITCH that just won't go away until I move into a new place. It's just dying to get out, the little monster that it's become.

Hello from Vancouver.
wow that looks amazing!
OK, WHAT?! $75??!! I love this farmhouse look (we're currently on the hunt for a vintage table) and I'm trying to figure out how to make this work for me in Canada... thank you for the link!
Steel wool and vinegar? I'd never heard of that! I love the way it looks - great idea!
