Tabled

I love a little project. Especially when it is outsourced :).



For our living room I wanted to do a circular ottoman as a coffee table. I scavenged to find the perfect ottoman and I did. Only it was about $800 for this (with my choice of fabric):


Well, sitting in my mom's attic was this table that had been her parents:



The diameter was perfect, only it had those little divets in it. My mom happens to know an upholsterer extraordinaire who turned that into this:

For a total of $275 (including the fabric and cushion)! Total steal.


What do you think? I am going to give a whole living room pic soon. I am close but not quite there.
