flip it over for a plant stand. Or leave it as is and add the plant on the top in the hole.Helpful Reply -

I wasn't thinking when I told you to use it for a planter. Outside maybe it would work. I didn't think of the size it actually was. Sorry.Helpful Reply -

The barn wood look is in right now. Perhaps find some way of using that as a top? If you want glass back in it, a local glazier (glass shop) can make you a new top.Helpful Reply -

A couple ideas. One buy a piece of ply wood cut it to fit the top on of the stool paint it with out door paint. Now go find the largest old bowl or basin with a lip on it........cut the center of the wood to fit the bowl or basin. Do the same for circle in between the legs. You could use the top basin or bowl fro a bird bath place some plants around it or as a feeder. For the one between the legs would be a great place for a fern or other shade plant.Helpful Reply -

MEASURE THE DEPTH OF THE LIP AROUND THE TABLE, SO YOU KNOW HOW THICK THE WOOD CAN BE. HAVE ANY PLYWOOD? COAT WITH measure THE DEPTH OF THE LIP AROUND THE TABLE, SO YOU KNOW HOW THICK THE WOOD CAN BE. HAVE ANY PLYWOOD? COAT WITH VARITHAN SPELLING! ON ALL SIDES. YOU MIGHT LIKE TO DO SOME INTERESTING STAIN PATTERNS ON THE WOOD AND THEN SEAL it! have any broken tiles or rocks. go.around the circumference...let your imagination go wild!Helpful Reply -

If you don't want to make another top, turn it over and get a large flower pot to put between the legs. it would make a nice pot stand. Or get a shallow bowl that would fit between the legs and make a large bird bath.Helpful Reply -

Cut a board to fit. Then mosaic tile to cover it. I have one I purchased at a thrift shop very similar - and it has a mosaic tile top. Or take it to a glass hop and have glass cut to fit.Helpful Reply -

Have a piece or two of plexiglass cut to fit. If you have 2 cut you could layer with something pressed between to change decor with the season or to personalize.Helpful Reply -

It would make a great stand inside the center of a larger table or mosaic/brick ring that you could build a fire (propane) ring in... Create a sheet metal basin that the ring can be attached within, fill with fire glass and enjoy!Helpful Reply -

The inside looks like the right size for a bird bath, and you can hang crystals or humming bird feeders around the upper outside circle. Place it over a succulent, this way there is something nice to look at in every level. Take a little bit of all suggestions and come up with something that fits you. Most importantly enjoyHelpful Reply -
