 This is an easy budget idea, use an old door, drill holes in each corner tie good quality strong rope, hang from a strong tree limb, it is best to drill a hole through if you leave hanging on branch it will eventually kill the branch. easy to pack in a good size car for a picnic. Pick up mismatched vintage plates and cutlery from your local secondhand store. Everyone will want one, what a great xmas or birthday pressie.

Vintage and up-cycling is a passion of mine, I love anything from a secondhand shop it usually has a history which gives it character and warmth enjoy. These photos show what using vintage collectables can give a unique style which should not blow the budget..








The table a cable spool used by most telco,s or check out your local tip shop $10.00au at my local shop on the Gold Coast Australia. Contact me if you would like the address.




This adorable screen could be made by painting some reclaimed doors white and joining by using some hinges, make sure your doors are for external not internal as they are not weather proof. An old front door would be prefect or some windows would look great. Send me some pictures of your own screens.If you are using your screens inside internal doors will be fine.
