HUSBAND HIGHLIGHT

When it comes to life and design Tim and I truly are a team. Almost every project is a collaboration and we feel very blessed that we get to work together almost every day! At least most of the time we feel very blessed! :) Anyway, Tim is a behind the scenes type of guy and is always content with me getting all the credit. However, his talents are beyond amazing and I am going to take most of the week to highlight his incredible abilities!!!! Today we will start with this fabulous concrete table Tim poured for Mrs. Ashley Ann!

Tim is a quick learner. His first experience with poured concrete occurred when we poured concrete countertops for our very own kitchen. After a whole lot of research he felt confident enough to take the plunge and give it a try. Things weren't perfect, but none the less we loved the results. Since then, Tim has learned SO much about concrete and really he is no longer a DIYer but a bona-fide professional!

And apparently he is VERY entertaining to little ones. But we already knew Tim was easy to watch! (If you haven't seen it already- you have to check out Tim's Design Star Audition video!)

Take a look at this transformation!!! Not only is the new concrete tabletop more functional for a family with four kids, but the beautiful natural gray color pops off the warm wood floor!

  5. Wow! What a difference that made!

    I would love to do this (or make my husband do it!). How did he attach the tabletop to the base?

  6. Amazing - I want to move into this kitchen. Please tell the family not to worry, I'll just sleep under the table!
