We had some tiles left over from our kitchen when we lived in Italy, so I made a table! My boyfriend made the metal frame for the table and the top is just a sheet of wood tiled over with.............leftover tiles from the kitchen! I broke them up and made a randon pattern to fit with the quantity of each colour, stuck them on (bit like a jigsaw puzzle) grouted them and voila, a table that has served us well.........bbqs, dinky toy races, homework, diy, drinking wine by candlelight.............the pictures don't do it justice believe me!!!
