Actually, I do use it for a buffet, place for beverages when we have to put the food inside as well as a potting bench. It has been a very useful table-just not all that pretty until this summer. It really is put together with scrap wood very primitively. I can't wait to click around your blog.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15871100533817816795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-78530103856560655022010-07-20T06:59:41.853-04:002010-07-20T06:59:41.853-04:00Looks great!

These are all great additions to your back yard--you've made it so much more homey looking, and it looks like you've done it without breaking the bank. Now that's a thrifty mommy at her best!<br /><br />Now all we need is so cooler weather so that you can enjoy your back yard. Sometimes I feel like summers are just for reminding me why I like the autumn. :)Richella Parhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04353214472648623583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-55613461242740920242010-07-19T22:00:23.185-04:002010-07-19T22:00:23.185-04:00Those cushions are great!

I had some clients that wanted to take their family pics inside our home which was very flattering. During the session they asked if they could take a few in our back yard. She was sure that our back yard was just as lovely since she loved the inside of our home…….I had to tell her no! We used the front yard instead. Our back yard is a royal nightmare! <br />Happy Monday to ya! <br /><br />Kendra "Domestic Princess in Training"Kendra @ Domestic Princess in Traininghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08999623769730494445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-15210610416816304792010-07-19T09:57:07.990-04:002010-07-19T09:57:07.990-04:00I love how pretty you can make it look - and that ...I love how pretty you can make it look - and that you also can totally break it down for us!Laurel @ Ducks in a Rowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03860986450641700046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-77587065105844120112010-07-19T09:11:51.198-04:002010-07-19T09:11:51.198-04:00I love all the little touches that you added!
