Outdoor Table and Dice Storage Box
This week Peter and Annalien build a storage box that acts as a seat and looks like a dice. They also build a table that is held up by pot plants. Peter makes a vase out of an old light bulb as well as some wind chimes from copper pipes. Be inspired to make your own!
