Homemade Happiness


I finally have a new table for dining.
I have been saving photos of tables for a long, long time to show my son who is a builder,
but when I showed
them to my husband he said, "I can build that"

(and you have to know what I thought---yes, but when?)


                          I was a little stunned when the next day he went to get the lumber for it.


I have been wanting a new table for a long time. One that would 
accommodate the family when they come to visit.
I loved my little iron garden table with the glass top but it didn't allow for enough
room for chairs because of the way the underneath was designed. 




 I am loving the way it turned out!
I painted it and now it's ready for food!

The photos aren't great because we have had clouds, clouds, clouds
and today it is snowing. It is warming up now so it will be rain soon and take 
the snow away. 


My husband is on a roll I tell ya!

I told him I wanted to take the little wall next to the refrigerator
and put plate rails up the entire wall to hold some of my favorite 
plates and when I explained what I wanted he made it happen.
I LOVE it!




I get credit for the cookies!






I thought I would share some things I found while I was out of town
visiting the dentist. I had to reward myself for having a good check up you know!


I love this tiny little plaque and coin purse.
Of course I found lace too! 





I was thrilled to find this piece of tin (or aluminum) can art.
I have seen pieces before, but nothing I really liked.
but this I love.


It's about 8" in diameter.
I would love to try and make something like this someday.



~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is what I am starting to look forward too.
It will be amazing to look out the window and see the trees in bloom again.
This was taken in May of last year.



The little violets will bloom again soon too.





Oh yes, and I also found this tiny little doily yesterday,
So I had to show you the extent of my Easter decor this year ---
sad, but true!



and of course...
some cheap peeps

and one non-conformist : )
always has to be one in the crowd!


I hope all of you are enjoying a beautiful Spring no matter the weather!!!
hugs,
June

Such a beautiful new table June! Enjoy! The shape of it reminds me of Maria from Dreamy Whites table which I looove! :) Your little Easter decorations are too cute and your spring photos are lovely... I am waiting for the day I can go pick wild violets again, but today it is a high of 19 degrees.. Eek!

Custom Comforts said...

You are so sweet and so funny. I just love reading your posts and chuckling at your cheap peeps. Your hubby did a fantastic job and you must be so proud and happy. I think things always mean more when someone near and dear to us made them for us. A beautiful table to share with family and I love your plate display. I think that is the first time I've seen your kitchen. Show more please :)

Hi June, simply beautiful!... Happy First Day of Spring to you!... we are getting rain and snow predicted for Friday... but warm temps so it won't last long... LOVE your new table and plate rails!... now I want Jack to make some for me so I can hang more of my vintage plates up, yours look gorgeous!... (I ate two cookies by the way, they were yummy!)... your vintage finds are all wonderful too, and I know you are like me, anxious to be out in your garden... my Violets have started to bloom already and their scent as I walk past them is so intoxicating!... sending much love to you, xoxo Julie Marie

Val said...

This entire post is just lovely. The table is beautiful. Great work! My dad builds things too, and my mom is always putting him to work on some new request. (I would too if we lived closer.) :) It's such a gift. :)

Enjoy your new table. It looks so fresh, it's magical.

Blondie's Journal said...

I love turning on my laptop and seeing one of your posts! I'm so happy for you~the table is absolutely lovely! The shelves, too. I really lingered over these pictures. You really have quite a husband there! And I love all the treasures you found out of town...the can thingy is really cool!

I'm really looking forward to spring, your pictures are so pretty...best wishes for a wonderful garden again this year!

XO,
JAne

Barbara said...

Oh my, can I borrow your husband :)??? My love has two left hands, but he's doing the best he can on my bathroom redo. He 's lucky that I'm a very patient girl ;)

Love the items you've purchased on your little shopping spree. Your tiny easter decorations are so cute.

While reading your post, I have a big smile on my face, NO... you're not boring at all, you have a great sense of humor my dear friend!

Hugs from Holland,

Junkchiccottage said...

Oh my the table is beautiful. Your Hubby did a great job. I love your plate shelves too. It all looks awesome.

Rebecca said...

Hi June!
Can I borrow your husband for awhile???? Sharing is caring...
Love that table, I know exactly what you mean about the glass garden table but then again my kitchen isn't long enough to accommodate a table to fit my crew. But I still would like a longer thinner table. I saw one with a zinc top with white legs that I have been suffering over.
Hope this finds you well and happy... not too much longer and the lilacs will be out :)
Blessings

June your table is lovely! And I adore your plate rack too!
Oh I wish I could tell you I am enjoying a beautiful spring day but it is 22 and I am sitting here next to the fireplace with a blanket on :-(. It still feels and looks like winter around here.

suziqu's thread works said...

Dearest June
Happy Spring to you dear friend! Well I hope it is almost upon you.
I see another little dream has been fulfilled in your life with that gorgeous table - you have been well blessed by your gorgeous man again!
Where would we be without them???
I can see many uses for this as well as the family gathering around it. The plate rack is such a neat idea and displays your china so beautifully too.
I so love your little finds like the pretty framed image and lace purse - what a sweetie that is!
It doesn't take much to raise our spirits after these little ordeals does it?
I just wish I was one of those little chickens standing on that plate so that I could see up close and personal all the beauty that surrounds you inside not to mention the outside too.
Sending you much love and some Autumal hugs all the way from here,
Suzy

Hi June,
I love your new table and plate rack. Our plates look so pretty in it.I love the color of the door too.
We had a bit of a snowstorm this morning and apparently another one coming on Friday.I think spring is going to be quite a bit later then last year for us but I know it is coming eventually.
Take care,

Susan EvelynAndRose said...

What a fabulous table June! Oh how I would love to hear those words from my husband - "I can build that". Your hubby did a terrific job, and you've already set the table so prettily. I love how the plate rails turned out, too. Those cookies must be really good!
And wow, a dentist trip doesn't usually end up so pleasantly. Beautiful finds!

Unknown said...

Wow. Does he hire out? Lol! Noah I love your finds. I don't know if we could shop together.... We would run for the same things. Lol! I love that metal piece. So cool. I am itching for spring too and getting out to take photos! Happy Easter.

maría cecilia said...

wow!! no words to express how much I love your new dining table, and all of the decor you made, and the light blue door on the back, everything looks sooooo gorgeous my dear June!!
Such a joy to visit your wonderful world my dear!!

Patina said...

Yeah for your husband! The table looks great June. I love getting projects done. And those cookies look pretty darn good too. ;)

Stan and Jody Gabara said...

June, I love your new table. Your husband did a fantastic job on it. You always need one more seat at the table and your new plate rail is perfect for that spot. It looks like you found some wonderful treasures too! Lucky girl! I'm in love with your little chicks, so cute. I have to get some. Thanks for always stopping by with your inspiring comments.

Jody

NanaDiana said...

Could you send your hubby here for a week or so? Tell him I am a good cook and bake everyday! C'mon- surely you can spare him for a FEW days!
AMAZING table and it looks beautiful and so does the PLATE RACK. Wow- I am impressed- xo Diana

Diane said...

What a guy!!! He deserves an extra cookie!
I'm glad you got the table and plate holder you wanted. Tables are so important, don't you think? Families are built around tables. Good to hear from you and I love your cute little chicks (even the nonconformist!) Blessings, Diane

Robin Johnson said...

Your new table is looking oh so wonderful! Hubby is very talented. Your built in plate rack on the other hand is making me downright green with envy. I love, love, love it. Hope hubby got to eat the pan of cookies all by himself. LOL.

Shabby chic Sandy said...

I recognise those cute little bunnies from Fred Meyers. I went back today to get some and they were gone. Darn it--I'm always a day ate and a dollar short :) I love your new table! Tell your husband all of us bloggers are jealous. Enjoy!

Carina said...

oh June, a big hug to you for showing us those beautiful things and make us smile. Congratulations to your No. One carpenter - can you send himover to me please, I need yet some more book cases!!!!
Stay happy and keep us smiling. Carina xx

Julia @ Vintage with Laces said...

Hi June, The table is just beautiful. Your hubby did a fantastic job, as well with that plate board. He's a keeper.
You certainly deserved a shopping trip for being a good girl and visiting the dentist. Great finds! The lace is so lovely of course and that can art piece is really cool.
Hopefully it will get warmer soon and your trees start to bloom.
Hugs to you and your furry babies,
Julia

Mimi Sue said...

Love your new table. It'll be great when the family is all together. Your hubby is a keeper! That plate rack is adorable too. I'm trying to find a wall that I can copy that great idea. Mimi

Shabby soul said...

The table is beautiful, so simple and wide, right the one I desire since a long time for my kitchen (and soon I will have the right space for it!) You know... my little son come in the kitchen to eat cookies, my daughter and friends to make their school duties, me cooking something... Kitchen is the heart of the house (at least mine!! ah ah)and a wide table is necessary =)
Love that wonderful shutter too, and your photos are stunning and bright, as always darling friend, despite the weather!
Hugs Silvia

Anna said...

I would also like to change the table but my husband says it's okay that .... ahhh, I have to make him read this post, maybe I will become good and quick to make do as tuot .. hahaha!
A wonder everything, from the table to the wall panel buying flowers ... it's a pleasure to come and see you!
Good spring!

Lisa said...

Hi Sweet June,
I think your Husband & my Husband need to get together & start a business! I adore your table & the plate holder. I can just imagine your brood gathered around the table at Thanksgiving.
Love your finds too. I have a couple pieces of tin art myself. I saw some really neat frames and things at Anthropologie that were made of cardboard but done like your tin art. Then spray painted gold. It was quite impressive. I'm going to try one.
Lisa

Deb said...

Not only is your table & plate rail gorgeous but having it made by hand just for you makes it all the more special!
Happy Spring ♥

Your husband surprised you with speed and a gorgeous table. I am really loving the plate rack too. I like the idea of a non-conformist peep. We all need to have a little of that in us from time to time. Wishing you a blessed and Happy Easter, Olive

Victoria said...

Wow, way to go hubby! Looks like he's been on a roll:) I love your new table and the built in plate rack is fabulous! If it makes you feel any better, you have more Easter decor out than I do:) I love Easter but with the boys being all grown up now, it's hard to get motivated to decorate for it these days!

Thank you for sharing your loveliness with us June:)

Junebug said...

I want your table!! It is exactly what I've been looking for and can't find. You are one lucky gal with that hubby making it for you!! Maybe I will put that on my list of future husband requirement. Don't worry I won't hold my breath on that!!

Then the added plate shelves, swoon!! You go girls with all you new hubby creations!!! HUGS!!!

Things and Thoughts said...

Amazing photos and so inspiring ! Thank you!

Rostrose said...

My dearest June, if I wouldn't already have Mr. Rusty Rose, I would ask for the hand of your husband! ;o))
He did a really VERY VERY good job with the table and the "plate-wall" (WOWOWOW!!!) And I love all those sweet things you found!!!
Thank you so much for your sweet words on my blog! I miss the west, too :o)) But I think it weel need some time till I can visit your wonderful country again. There are so many other countries, too ... and so many other things to do ... (sigh! ;o))
Last week we were very busy with some furniture removals in the new flat of our daughter and her birthday and so on... And soon I will make a cure again for my shoulder... That's the reason why I will just write two more posts and then will make a blog-pause...
But I'll be back :o))
Warm hugs to you (and to the little non-conformist ;o)), Traude

Dear June,

What a wonderful table and plate rack your husband made ... he is so very talented and you must be thrilled.
Your house and garden should be featured in a glossy magazine.
Love your sweet chickie Easter decorations and the lovely violets.
Sending hugs and hope you are enjoying the week

hugs

Marrianna said...

The table is beautiful, June, as are the photos of the budding/flowering tree taken last May. Here in Flagstaff, AZ, it seems to be a fairly normal 1st day of Spring - sunshine and breezy. But we've gotten heavy snow on April 1st so I'm not holding my breath. I got some gladiola bulbs to try bulb forcing inside and then later plant them in my natural/wildflower abundance front yard planter. I'm not much of a gardener so wildflowers that are naturalized are my style.

I also loved the outsider peep in your Easter decorations. I don't have any. Maybe I'll buy an Easter Lily to celebrate. Great photos as usual. Happy Easter.

wendy said...

Is your husband for rent????? (tee,hee) The table is fab and I LOVE that plate holder wall. I don't have room for anything like that here at my place, but I still want it.
Glad to see you go "all out" with your Easter decoratiing.
I am also anxiously awaiting a small sign of spring. It is cold and blowing snow here. Groan

Boxwood Cottage said...

Great finds dear June!
Wow your husband is a great builder too! Your table looks beautiful and I also love that spring blue door you have in the background. These plate racks look fabulous too! Yes I know that you are waiting for Spring now as impatiant as I do. It is really unsusual for us to have such a long Winter with so much frost and snow. It's still freezing strongly at night and snowing every 2 days. At least for next week the weather forecast promised us more sun and blue skies, but still freezing cold nights so no chance for flowers yet *sigh*
Happy Spring wishes to you!
xoxo~ Carola

Your husband did a wonderful job...! LOL I always thing the same ("yes but when?") when my husband says he's going to do something... I love the pictures xxx

Judy at GoldCountryCottage said...

Hi June. Your new table is beautiful, your sweet hubby outdid himself. And I really like the dish shelves. How pretty it looks with them all displayed like that. I bought those same little peeps. How could anyone resist them peering up out of their box. Take me home!!Happy Thursday..Judy

What a wonderful roll your husband is on. I love the table and the plate racks. You scored some great finds after the dentist didn't you, love that little purse.

I just love when my men get inspired. I am fortunate that I have both my Dad and my DH who are great with making things.
I was trying to see your dining chair covers in the photo. I was wondering how you managed to cover all the different styles. Please share if you have the time. I am thinking about getting some different chairs.

I totally missed this post!
YAY! your husband made you that amazing table, and those awesome shelves! That is so great! And you didn't have to wait forever! The plates look adorable on the wall like that. And your tin can art piece is completely amazing! I didn't know people did stuff with tin cans like that. It is really very beautiful! I laughed at your Easter decor with one little doillie two bunnies and a chick... and that one photo with the crabapple blossoms looks like a painting waiting to happen!
