How was your weekend?
Did you do any work in the yard?
We did. And we gave a $10 thrift store find some new life and a new home on our front porch.
My mom and I were at a thrift store a few months back, following up on a Pyrex tip (yes, really), and we saw this teak table. It was $10 and we both NEEDED it. She drives a tiny little 2 seater and couldn’t actually get it home, so I won.
See how you can turn that middle part over? Fun, right?
Structurally, it was in great shape but the wood needed some love. And by “love” I mean “child labor”.
Yes, my 4 year old is wearing a Santa shirt in May…what of it?
And then we planted the shallow tray with some succulents
and added some gravel.
And a before and after shot:
Totally worth $10, right?
To see the rest of my $100 porch makeover (and some prettier shots of the table), come back tomorrow!
