A certain thrill of DIY is giving new life to objects that otherwise would be thrown away.

A couple of days ago, Rachel wrote about the table she rescued from an alley. Then she emailed me and asked if maybe we could have some DiYVR fun with it. Well, duh.

To kick things off, let's have a good look at this thing. It's about 27" high, 23" across, and 17" deep. Consider this the "before" post. Over the next few weeks, Rachel will give this baby a makeover, and I'll keep you posted on her hard work. Don't be shy with your opinions. Let's have it.
