I received an old changing table from my sister-in-law because she knew I’d do something with it and lemme tell you, it’s flattering when someone knows you’ll do something with whatever they give you. I’d seen old changing tables turned into potting benches so I thought, why not. Continue reading “Turn An Old Changing Table Into A Potting Bench” →
