Last night I took a trip to Urban Barn in Oakville to see the dining table that we are thinking about. The Hamilton and Burlington stores don't have the table yet and I'm not the most patient person. I want it now :)
The Distillery collection is a juxtaposition of materials and textures. Constructed from solid wood and metal each piece has a raw beauty. This rugged collection with its variety of wood grains will add natural character to any dining room.

This is the matching chair. It is surprisingly comfortable. The last two pieces we need to see are the dining bench and the sideboard. Remember the not too patient person? We might be placing the order without seeing them.

One great thing (or it can be a bad thing) about blogging every day is that my parents know what is happening in Ancaster while they are in Myrtle Beach.

Now I need to sign off and get ready for the baseball game. I hope that the Jays put in a much better effort than they did yesterday or they will be on the golf course this weekend.

Oh such lovely looking yarns and colours- I'm thinking a drive to Ancaster might be in order. Like the table!
