Christmas presents this year were started early - last spring. Tim made four sets of nesting tables, each set with three tables, for each of our three children, and one set for ourselves. It was all a big secret, but a pile of 48 legs lying around does raise some eyebrows. The children were told not to ask questions. I think they were surprised at the big reveal on Christmas Eve.

These are beautiful. Tim is very talented. I wish I was one of your children, but I'm way too old!

Now those are treasures! Lucky kids...lucky you. Beautiful!
They're fabulous. You've created what I'm sure will become family heirlooms one day.
Hi Lorrie - what amazing gifts! I've just done a post with final questions for the Magazine Swappers. Could you pop over and let me know what you think, please?
Hi Lorrie...Wow, these are just gorgeous! Such a lovely gift from a very talented Dad...although I am sure you had a little hand in it?...
Wishing you the best.
Hugs, Nancy
Lorrie, these are just wonderful. I have a set of antique nesting tables, but they are very unsturdy. I have to be careful what I put on them. Yours are so beautiful and look very sturdy. What a treasure you and your children will have!
