LEGO Table from Two Tier End Table

Lego play center DIY table
A lego play center with brick and instruction book storage along with two levels of play areas.  A great way to transform a on end table!
I’m so excited about this project, not only because my kids love it, but also because it is part of this month’s power tool challenge.  The theme is REPURPOSE this month.

 My entry is this end table repurposed into a LEGO play center. The plastic bin which houses the legos pops out for easy clean up and the little drawer in the table is the perfect place to store building instructions.  Everything in arm’s reach for the best experience!

So how did my project come together?   Well, it started with this 10$ thrift store find.  
Ten dollar thrift store table
And turned into this all in one play center.

Highly functional, self contained and compact.  My kind of end table!
