Children's Outdoor Play Table

Step 5 Wrap up

From here there are a few thing you can do to finish it out.

1. Sand it down again and add a chalk paint top
2. Paint it so it fits in with the backyard more (camo to hide it from the wife)
3. Edging to stop run away crayons and such.


I'm not sure how strong this table is, but two of my three were able to stand on it with out the table shaking. To strengthen it a bit I might add some 1 x 4s for cross leg support and stability.

Great Instructable - the picture proves it can stand up to punishment!  :-)

Nice! Definitely add a few coats of sealant to protect the table from the rain. That wood will last less than a season if exposed to the elements!

I like it...very simple and inexpensive way to have an outdoor table...
now if you made one of those sand and water tables w/a lid that would be super snazzy =)
