Baby Changing table made into a Potter's bench

with a little creativity, a nail gun, old fencing and paint I was able to create my potting bench using what I had on hand. You can read about the details at: http://shelstringblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/b...

    Love this idea for a potting bench Michelle. I've often thought about it but am well past having a baby change table in the house! I'm planning on upcycling an old wooden barbeque frame into a potting bench using a similar design. It already has timber slats either end at waist height and a shelf at the bottom. It just needs a shelf to fill in the gap where the BBQ was and a backboard.

    Thank you all so much!

    Steve G.- no, my baby isn't potty trained, but as you can see on my blog, there was always too much stuff on it to put a baby there! We just change her on the bed or floor now. She is almost old enough to potty train at this point ;)

    Anne G- I would love to see it when you complete it! Great idea!!

    Hey, I've heard of 1-year-olds who are potty-trained, and 6-month-olds who are solids potty-trained if you know what I mean.

    I'll be sure and hit garage sales as many people sell baby items.
