What should a kitchen table be like?
The most important item of kitchen interior is the dining table. It is important that it is cozy and comfortable for both adults and children to sit at it. The table should be in harmony with the general atmosphere of the room, its coloring should be neutral, calm, and not cause negative feelings.
Usually, a kitchen table is selected after the renovation is completed, when it is already clear how it will look in the new interior. The chairs should match it. When choosing a table, the footage of the room, the color of the furniture, the interior, etc. are taken into account. The material from which the table is made is also of great importance. It can be stone, wood, chipboard, MDF, glass, etc.
It happens that the first thing you bought was a table. Now, focusing on this furniture, you think over the entire interior of the kitchen. The color of the tabletop affects the overall design - whether it will be neutral or have a contrast. Everything depends on your taste and imagination.
If after purchasing you are disappointed in the choice of table or it does not match the decor at all, this can be fixed. Put a tablecloth or paint it, choose curtains to match the color of the table, use other decorative elements.
Original handmade wooden tables
To save money or if you like to do everything yourself, you can make a table yourself. For the simplest option, you will need a hacksaw, a drill and a hammer. But, having made a table and ennobled it, you will get a beautiful thing that will look no worse than a store-bought one.
Tables are mainly made of wood, an environmentally friendly, affordable material that is easy to process. And such a table looks aesthetically pleasing. Tables are made from a single piece of wood, as well as from timber, glued wood. For curved legs, glued timber is suitable instead of straight timber.
The compositions are different - either the entire table is made of wood, or the tabletop is glass, or a processed strong snag serves as a support instead of legs. Another option - to make the tabletop frame, many bars with a cube-shaped base were used, differing from each other in color and carved part.
This table looks like a transformed city on the shore of a huge square lake. There are many options, choose at your discretion.

A table made of solid wood is strong, durable and looks stylish. Of course, it is expensive, but it is of high quality. Such furniture is made only from solid wood or by gluing wooden plates layer by layer.
Both hardwood and softwood trees are suitable for furniture production. For solid wood tables, hardwood trees are used: beech, ash, oak, maple, apple trees. Tables are rarely made from softwood.
Let's consider what types of solid wood are used to make tables and their properties.
| Solid oak | The most expensive, but strong, wear-resistant, capable of withstanding significant loads, moisture-resistant. The material is impregnated with tannins, which prevent decay and the development of microbes. The table should be treated only with durable varnishes |
| Beech | Beech furniture is less expensive. The material attracts designers because it ages beautifully |
| Nut | These tables are strong but heavy and expensive. But since the wood does not split, decorate the table with openwork or carvings. |
| Birch | Strong, impact-resistant material, but does not last long. Hygroscopic, so impregnation is required |
| Ash | Ash wood is elastic, strong, has a golden hue. Suitable for a kitchen table |
| Pine | Pine is not afraid of high humidity and temperature changes. It is appropriate to use it where allergy sufferers live. But this material is not able to withstand even small loads, so it is not suitable for tables. But due to the low cost, tables are made of it, for example, writing tables. Tables made of solid pine should have a good varnish coating |
Unusual furniture certainly decorates any interior. We hope you will make the right choice of such a table.
