Vera can you post a picture of your changing table? This will give us a better idea of what you are going to be working with.

vera is it the wicker kind?you can use each cubby for soil or pots. I think it is a great idea! Once you get started the creative juices will flow. First find a spot. What do you want behind it and above shelves? A window/mirror?BOTH?

Sure, here it is.....

If the shelves are open in the back:
Let the front be the back. Take off the part of the original back that is solid and curved and says baby changer, lol. You may have to reinforce the shelves with more wood over them. You can cut a hole in the top for a bucket/bowl to use for water or use for dirt. Again that may have to be reinforced. Use hooks on the side spindles to hold tools and other items. Paint it a bright color or two and seal it good. Then it will last longer in the outside weather.

It would be nice if you could hook it to a tall bookshelf so you would have upper shelves or hang shelves above it on wall for storage. Let us know what you do with it.

vera...have you looked at the "Wood Creations" in our Inspiration Album created by purplemoon from GJers' works...it may "spark" an idea! I'll post the link below. Jeanne S.

I wonder if it would work to put a plywood top on and cover with tiles? Or maybe you'd have to use concrete backer board? Just a thot.

Have you decided how to "change" it yet? I know, I know, it's only been a day, but I was anxious!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Haven't started anything with this changing table yet. I'm still waiting for my inspiration! Thanks Jeanne for the Wood Creations link, there is some nice stuff in there. It's still too cool here in NE Ohio to paint and I have to find a place to put the table. I know I'll love having a place for all my gardening stuff & the shelves will probably need reinforcing to hold everything. I'll keep you posted!

speaking of places to put your potting bench where are yours? DH made me one but its very big and heavy. the only covered area i have is my carport. trying to convince him to build a little "lean-to" off the shed....
