I needed a desk, so I built one❤️

-

My neighbor gave me a small table with these beautiful hairpin legs which gave me the inspiration to build a larger tabletop for them! My dogs love to sit under my desks while I worked so it was necessary to build a table top big enough for them all🤣❤️

-
All of the wood is recycled from the off cuts of the houses they’re building to the south of me! It’s not perfect, but she’s pretty to me❤️
