The Easy Train Table

Hello readers! Sorry I'm the worst blogger. Between answering emails, updating craigslist, etsy, Facebook and working, there's little time to blog.
I'm trying to get better!

Today I'd like to talk about our newest project. The train table.
So first off, how do stores get off by charging 350.00 for a Thomas the Train table? This is for just the table folks. No trains, no tracks.
I was very surprised too.

Our boys first table, we purchased some tracks, trains and the table for 250.00, apparently we got a amazing deal. Because I found out yesterday, just the table costs 350.00!
Well, shortly after buying it, it broke. Shouldn't the quality on a item this expensive be unbreakable, especially since kids will be using and abusing it?

My husband and I love to have nice things, but try to keep our costs at a minimum, especially when we know that our kids will most likely break it.
I got to work brain storming on a train table. We put our kids to bed and immediately when to our garage and built a train table.
It was simple. 2 x 4's for legs nailed together to make 4 x 4's. 1 x 4's for the frame, and a heavy mid quality piece of plywood.
Fill holes, sand, and stain. WALLAH.
We had scrap wood and materials laying around home, the only thing we had to purchase was the plywood. We bought a 8 x 8 piece for 33.40, but they come in smaller pieces.

Really happy with how it turned out. The table top is screwed down to prevent the boys from tearing it off ( Yes, the Thomas top always came off )

Hello!

It's been a crazy year. But we are thankful to our customers, family and friends for the amazing support. It's been a lot of learning, trying and growing.. a lot of success and a few failures. I'm sure more failures to come, but we're learning!

We just launched our Etsy Page as seen here https://www.etsy.com/shop/WestCoastCountryLTD
We've already had two sales and a lot of interest arising!

We shipped our first Canada Wide Harvest Table in early January and look forward to shipping more items.

West Coast has been so busy this past month. Between Custom jobs, doing our own thing and restoration.
We've made two trips to Vancouver Island in the last month and we'll be in the Olde Farmhouse Vintage Market on the 28th of September. The event can be seen here:

A lot of growth and requests have come in this last month that we've had to sit back and really look at our priorities. We've two toddlers, as well we're involved with our church. So at this point we're leaning more to doing custom work.
Email, Call or Message us with a request. We'll look around for a similar piece and if we find one, a deposit will be asked for and that will be completed upon day booked.
We've been doing this this week, and it seems to not only be less stressful - but a lot more scheduled.

So far we've two table sets we're working on, two buffet/hutches, two dressers and one coffee table, also a old restoration trunk.
Seems like a lot, but with two of us working, we complete the jobs with a quality finish.

Next week is a lot less busy, so book your slot. We hope to hear from you soon!
Here are a few custom pieces that we've completed in the last month.
