Mandi from Interior Design Musings was less than excited when she inherited this wicker coffee table that looked like it had been stolen from the set of The Golden Girls. However, the longer it sat in her garage, the more she warmed up to it, finally admitting to herself that it had a shape she could work with. A little slipcovering with some greek key trim later, and she was in business!
Great idea Mandi! This could work with just about anything. I do recall an end table I once made for my college apartment out of a slipcovered bucket, true story.
