The table works well in my porch. The clay bottles were found buried near an old brickworks, the spider plant rests in an old basket

Once sanded, I painted the table white then added this historical map of Great Britain which was the perfect fit. I gave it an antique stain and varnished it for durability

Found this old table on the roadside some years ago, brought it home and gave it a face lift. Originally it was a dark and dingy brown but had a lovely shape and great potential.
