Nova Mesa

We are so excited about our new table! We had been looking everywhere for a dining room table and chairs. But we just couldn't find anything we really loved for a price we were willing to pay. Then I remember seeing a little carpentry shop on a little street we had driven down after getting gas one day. We had no idea what to expect but thought that it would be a fun cultural experience... so off we went. We found the shop and through pictures and pointing and even a little language:) we explained what we wanted.

For for not much more than we would have spent anywhere else we have a handmade, mahogany dinning set. We love it! It turned out better than I imagined.
The shop that made it for us was a father/son business and they were very proud of their work. They said if anything ever goes wrong with it just to let them know and they would fix it. They didn't have us finish paying them until I had seen the finished product and approved of it. The dad wanted me to know that the chairs were very solid and safe for the kids. So he picked one of the chairs up and threw it on the ground! I had a mini- heart attack, but he proved his point... nice sturdy chairs:)
We had our first "dinner company" last night, the table and chairs performed wonderfully!
So, whose next!?
