Clara's New Table


We finally finished making a table for Clara! We've been working on it for probably 2 months! We bought the round wood table top at a store that is similiar to a Home Depot. The legs are actually plumbing tubes that are attached with caps onto the bottom of the table. They are easily removable and we can attach taller legs as Clara grows taller. Hubby did all the shopping, the labor of building it, priming it, and painting the blue sky and the yellow sun. He did a great job and I'm so thrilled to give Clara something that we created!


I did the detail work... the bees, the sun's expression, and painting the legs. One leg has Clara's name on it, entwined with a vine and flowers. The other three legs have a butterfly and a flower on them.
Here's a closeup of the table top:



The border says:
"God made the sun, God made the bee,
God made the flowers, And God made me!


And this picture was just too cute not to post....
