Woodworker: Matthew Osborn
"My wife and I were used to living in tiny apartments with our daughter and having to move our furniture around to do anything that required any amount of floor space," Osborn says. "This table design was my solution to that situation." He calls these white oak and walnut tables "Mother and Her Cub." With the smaller one (20 in. dia. by 16 in. tall) nestled inside the larger coffee table (42 in. dia. by 14 in. tall), there is plenty of surface area to play games or eat. Or, you can take out the smaller table to use as a side table. The tables are finished with Danish oil and took about 40 hours to complete. For more of Osborn's work, go to osbornandstillman.com
