Our New Farm Dining Table
When we remodeled our kitchen, we knew we needed a new dining room table. We searched for months and never found anything we loved. Luckily, we came in contact with a local furniture maker/designer, Patrick Davis, who builds custom farm tables. We met with him in December and fell in love with his work. We told him we wanted a rustic, solid wood, farm table with two large benches. We saw a few previews along the way and every time I got more excited about our table.
On Saturday, we got the call that our table was finished and was ready to be delivered. The table is perfect, just what we had in mind. The base of the table is built out of wood from an old bridge that collapsed over the Great Salt Lake. How cool is that? I love that our table has a story behind it. It is rustic, solid, and has lots of character. The dark wood contrasts nicely with the white cabinets and floors. We love it!
I love the design underneath the table and benches. It adds a little something extra. We plan on buying two chairs for both ends, but we have to find the right ones. I am on the hunt! We are glad we have more space for our guests. Come dine with us anytime!

Your dining table is gorgeous!! My parents collect antiques and they sourced some old farm tables and had one shipped to them that was made from old barn doors, I believe.
Anyway, you are making me feel the need to shop for furniture. Your table is to die for!

Thank you! You are welcome to come see it in person anytime:)
i’m obsessed with farm tables. great looking one! i’ll be jealous while you eat on yours!
Beautiful – ever the practical can you put plates/glasses on it directly? What’s the finish?
twopeas replied: — January 18th, 2011 @ 3:15 pm
Yes, we can put dishes directly on the table. I am not sure what the exact finish is. I can find out though:)
Gorgeous. Love the dark stain.
The design and stain are amazing. Watch out as I will come visit so prep the guest bed(s)

You are always welcome:)
It looks wonderful and so inviting.
Love it! We are on the hunt for a dining room table as well. Yours fits your house perfectly
What a stunning table Maria – love it!
It’s so beautiful Maria. Love that the wood is local! I have a very similar farm table in my kitchen, with one bench & then 4 chairs.
LOVE LOVE LOVE it Maria!!!! It’s so beautiful and I love that it’s made from local wood!
I can’t believe something so simple is so gorgeous. I gave one very similar to this away from my mom’s house, but the stain was golden oak, and ugly, never thought it could be so pretty in a dark stain in the right setting. I have to have one of these now, I wonder if I can talk hubby into it if i distress it and stain it?

Good luck with the staining:)
What a beautiful table…. the color of it is amazing!
That is absolutely GORGEOUS! I love that it’s custom-made. Don’t tell Pottery Barn, but your table is way more beautiful than anything I’ve seen in their store!

Thanks, it will be our secret:)
That’s beautiful, congrats on the new table! I bet you can’t wait to have people over to eat at the table!
Your table is gorgeous, just like your kitchen! You have a nice modern-cottage thing going on and I love it!!
Cool table. I love it!
GORGEOUS! Love the dark color – goes so well with your stunning kitchen!
We had a dining room table made for us too! This local company uses wood reclaimed from within 10 miles of Seattle. I LOVE it. We are going to have a bench made at some point too but for now we just got really good (and relatively inexpensive) chairs at Crate and Barrel. Congrats on a beautiful piece!

Custom tables are the best! We are loving ours so far. I will have to look at Crate and Barrel for two end chairs. Thanks Dana!
Oh my goodness, it’s just lovely! I love the idea of having a custom built table instead of something more cookie cutter. That looks beautiful in your new kitchen!
That’s so beautiful!! Very rustic but so perfect.
That is gorgeous and the exact style my husband and I are hoping to get someday.
I love it! Especially with the nice, local story behind it. And the cookies.

Cookies are the perfect centerpiece:)
