Suspended beauty

If you want to give your room an illusion of space while supporting the green movement as well, here’s a great idea you could work on. Instead of looking for extra floor space, try suspending your table from the ceiling.

For this project, we use a piece of sawed-off lumber picked literally from our backyard as the tabletop. You can keep the look rustic by keeping the bark. Or you may prefer it smooth or sleek by smoothing and polishing off the wood. Either way, you’re going to come up with a cool piece of furniture that’ll impress family and friends.
