Designing a new dining table...

I recently scored a huge 10' sideboard on Craigslist. Now my fugly old Ikea table just looks really sad next to it. So for weeks I've had the idea rolling in my head to get a new glass dining table but everything I see I'm just not that into or its waaay over my budget.

I found an image on Pinterest that got my creative juices flowing. It's of candle holder from the 50's, I just love it and thought something like that would make a cool base. Then I started looking for more ideas...








I still have some other ideas rolling in my head but I love this one so far. Not sure if my welder can do it, but we shall see...

Love that you can casually say "...My Welder..." like we all have one (and actually I do have a welder pal. Love it when I see inspiration happening from any old thing (candle holder = table base...why not?!)
