Just a Little County

No matter if it is in the kitchen or the great outdoors, it's time to put a little country in our lives.

The Buffet

The other day, I got an idea.  As I was trying to figure out where we would put all the food everyone is making for Thanksgiving, it occurred to me, there is no place.  So, I looked around.  As I said, I got an idea. My wonderful husband could make a really, really big radiator cover to go over the piano.  So, I asked him about it.  His response was "there really was no reason why it could not happen.
So today, we got up. we went to our little barn and got some left over wood we had from a shelving unit we tore apart.  This is what we came up with.

We placed the longer board on top of the piano.  They are just sitting there...nothing was "attached" to the piano.

 The hubby measuring.  Isn't he just too cute??


The side are up


How are the side pieces attached?  The top two boards were screwed in with wood screws.  Nothing attached to the piano.  This will just slide right off when the holiday's are over.

 Putting more boards on top to extend the "buffet". 


 The legs and front side are up.  Again, nothing is screwed into the piano. 

Front view of the finished buffet.
I have one of my mother's lace table clothes that will go over the top with the matching red table runner from my daughter's wedding.  The center piece I made (the vase and candle) will go on top of it and the food around that.  I love the holidays.
