Project: DIY Tiny Patio Table

Just enough room for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine—and perfect for small patios.
For this project you will need:
A small resin statue
A metal plant stand
A round piece of wood
Spray paint
Nano or Gorilla glue
I got my bird statue at the Dollar Tree, the plant stand at a thrift store, and the paint and glue at my local hardware store.  Resin statues and plant stands are easy to find at Ross, Big Lots, yard sales, etc. Mine came with the wood already inside, but Michaels has a good selection of precut round pieces of wood.
Then I just glued the bird to the wood (I love Nano glue), let it dry overnight, and painted the whole thing white. Really, you could use any color or combination of colors (it looked cute pre-paint and would have been fine for a more rustic porch), but I like the uniformity of one color and white makes everything look sculptural and antique.
