Table Treasure

This is the interesting table I found at the antique mall to use in Harry's room as a bedside table.  It is some kind of metal game table that is very unique and the perfect size for the spot I want to use it. 



You can see in the picture it is a little dinged up on top with some rust marks, but I had an idea of how to deal with that. I ordered a handy dandy cheap silicone dish drying mat off of Amazon and it arrived this afternoon!  I flipped the mat upside down so the smooth surface was facing up!  I didn't have to glue it or anything!  I think it looks great! 


With the silicone mat on the table his phone, computer and/or a drink will stay put and won't have to sit directly on the metal.   BONUS....the mat covers up the rust spots! 


Here is a picture of it in Harry's room! 


I used a binder clip to hold an iPhone charger in place on top of the table so you don't have to dig around for it all the time.  I am super pleased with this treasure!

Now about that ottoman!
