Tree Stump Table

I finally finished working on my tree stump table!

After many nights of sanding (it was just too hot during the day!) it is finally done.

 So smooth to the touch...

and just the right height to drop my keys on when I walk in the door!

I love that I was able make something functional and beautiful out of this tree stump from Tuscaloosa!

By Hand

Amanda, the designer behind Wit & Whistle, has started a new little series on Fridays where she is practicing her hand lettering skills. This is something I'd love to spend more time on and become better at doing!  The ones she has done so far are just lovely and make me want to start practicing! Can't wait to see what she comes up with for the next two Fridays.
