Have you thought about adding a concrete top to your project? I think after you see this it will be a consideration!
How about the beautiful smooth lines with a mix of modern farmhouse, such a perfect blend! This DIY Concrete Coffee Table with Casters is a statement piece to say the least, that view doesn't hurt either, am I right! You're going to have to stop by DIY Pete to see the cool "night feature" too. He does a great job by accompanying many of his plans with videos to help the process along. What are you building this weekend?
