This was a birthday present for my husband. I made a few adjustments because we didn't want that big of a table. To make it decorative, I added 45-degree angles for the outside edge and then added the planks on the inside. I found the planter size that I wanted and then I built it to fit around the planter that I used for the ice cooler. I liked the hole in the middle for the lid so if I wanted to I could take out the planter/cooler and put a table umbrella in its place for shade if we wanted. We have a family of four so I wanted to make a bench for each person and enough room for more if desired. I mostly used the same plans for the table I just shrunk the size and made sure that they would push in under the table. My husband loved it.
