BUILD YOURSELF A ROCK-SOLID TABLE
1. Just the right height for cocktails, this impressive “on-the-rocks” table is made with inexpensive materials. Take a metal trashcan, turn it upside down, then spray-paint it black. The can will become the “invisible” filler that the rocks surround.

2. Measure out hardware cloth about eight inches in diameter larger than the can.

3. Head to the local quarry and buy river rocks by the bag, enough to fill the spaces between the can and the hardware cloth (about 10 medium-sized bags).

4. Drop in rocks, arranging them so you can’t see the can in the middle.

5. Add on a tabletop, either balanced or bolted directly into the can. Grab a chair and relax.
