Mini table WIP

19 years ago

Decided to try a 'mini' before tackling a bigger type table. This little table sits along with plants outside our front door with a welcome bear on it. I debated about putting glass on the edges... think maybe I'll just grout and paint. Ideas always welcome.

    Wonderful colors! Your pieces are carefully thought out and placed. Now you're ready for the BIG time table! Rock on!

    Oh, I LOVE that design.
    Personally for that small table, I don't think I'd do the edges..maybe on a larger one.

    Thank you all!
    The tiny square pieces and the dark green bigger squares I didn't cut... they were store bought glass... before I realized how NOT cost effective it is buy them pre-cut. Well.. and before I bought the glass cutter, too. The tan diamonds I was just lucky with the ol' eyeball-it technique. That glass came from the nice lady from Craigs List who gave me glass!

    kate- Wow that really is a mini table!! The design is just lovely!!! I like the colors that you are using they pair well with each other. I don't know if I would have been creative enough to think of it (the greens and browns) but I'm glad you did!!!! Awesome job!!!

    Chickee...
    I used to collect mini-chairs. This is really a mini chair/table. The table top folds up... and it's a little chair. Kind of a cute thing but since I didn't have tabletop space for it inside it just became an outside plant table for awhile.. then the home for the bear. I'll put a better pic. of it when it's grouted.

    Really great design and color combination.
    What color grout are you thinking of? that would be a really hard one for me to decide on. Love what you've
    got going on there!

    OH W.O.W. That is just beautiful. Don't know why you had fear of a big table - this is perfect workmanship. I LOVE the different shapes and their placement. I can't believe you eyeballed those diamond shapes. I can't even make a perfect one w/the Morton system! Beautiful. Anxious to see your WIP on the big top.

    Thanks so much for the encouragement, everyone!
    I'm planning on dark charcoal grout... 'cause that's the only color I have right now. I'll paint the table base probably the same color after grouting.
    Won't get it done this coming weekend.. it's a granddaughter weekend. :) Soon though.. I'm anxious to get one piece DONE!
