basic shaker style table

Project by jcsterling posted 194 days ago 441 views 3 times favorited 9 comments Add to Favorites Watch

My standard gift for weddings. Small shaker style table fits most decor. Mortise and tenon construction. First table is cherry with cherry pegs. Second table is curly maple with walnut pegs. Third table is walnut with cherry pegs. Walnut picture appears much redder in the photo than real life.

Nice long legs. Simplicity at it’s best. Simple is beautiful.

John, this is a gorgeous table. I am a fan of Shaker style furniture and cherry is my favorite wood. So, of course, I would enjoy seeing a piece like this. The other two tables look nice as well but the cherry one would be my favorite. I guess that I have to confess that I have a cherry addiction! :)

Thanks for the post.
