SYTYCD Week 8-Galvanized Table

 

 Don't you just love when you can take a unusual found object and turn it into something functional? I found this old galvanized burner at a garage sale and thought when I bought it I would just stick a plant in it and put it on my porch.

Then after awhile it hit me, I could make a table out of it. Rummaging through my house I found this metal table base in the garage. I purchased a wood round for the top.

I purchased a sophisticated finishes rusting kit from Michael's to turn the wood round into what looks like an old rusty table top.

I painted the metal base with several different browns and applied the rusting solution to certain areas. Following the directions, I then applied the rusting solution to the wood round. It's a process that rusts with time but requires you to continue to apply more solution until achieving the effect you desire.

If you have not tried using the rusting kit for a project, you really must.

 

I secured the all the pieces with liquid nails for stability.

And this is how it turned out.....my one of a kind rusty galvanized table.
