Repurposed Drum Table

This week I wanted to talk about one of our repurposing projects. This piece my mom had a lot of fun making. She found the drum in this shabby condition and came up with the idea of turning it into a table. She didn’t tell me exactly what she was going to do and just started to work on it. It turned out really good.








She started by sanding the sides of the drum to make it more of a shabby chic. Then took 1940 chair legs and mounted them to the bottom of the drum to hold it. She cut a hole in the top of the drum and put a clock inside. Then she had to buy the glass. This was a challenge, but she finally found one and we were happy it was beveled glass.  She made the table so the glass can be taken off and the clock inside so the batteries can be replaced easily. What a great way to repurpose an old drum!
