Cane-Top Table

Source: Martha Stewart Living, July 2005

Introduction

Iron garden tables from the mid-20th century are easy to find at flea markets, but they often look plain. Give one instant style with a fresh coat of paint in a sunny shade and easy-to-install caning (no weaving required). This is also a simple way to unify outdoor accent tables that have different designs.

steps

Have your local glazier cut two sheets of glass to fit inside the table frame. Cut a sheet of caning (available at specialty stores) to size, and sandwich it between the glass sheets; set in frame.
