Side table upcycle

 

I found this vintage plant stand in an op shop a while ago, I loved the mid-century design so I went on a mission to find the perfect pot to sit on top for my fiddle leaf fig. Unfortunately finding that perfect size/shape pot was almost impossible so I ended up buying a basket for the fig. In the garage the plant stand stayed.
 
I had seen a few table upcycles on instagram using the large round cheese board from Kmart, that got me thinking......it just so happens it was a perfect size table top! I didn't want the writing on the top so I used the blank underside.


The timber was lovely but way too dark for my liking so I painted it white. Painting made such a difference! It also looked much better upside down as a table base.

All was left to do was flip it over, add some brackets and screw it all together!
These are the brackets I used
A perfect little functional and fashionable side table.
