Did you know a pizza tray will fit perfectly on this viral planter?

When I saw someone share that they used that hack for a side table I knew I needed to make a little mini patio set for Koko!
Supplies:
cloth to wipe off tray before spraying
1/2 inch drill bit (this can go through metal)
hammer or pliers to get rid of sharp edges
Here's what I did:
-Mark the center of the pizza tray with a pencil and place on a cardboard box.
-Using your 1/2" drill bit, slowly drill your hole
-Unscrew the clamp from the umbrella and make sure it fits
-Use pliers or a hammer to make sure their are no sharp edges
-Sand the entire top of the tray and sides with the sandpaper and then wipe all the dust off
-Prime first (you want to aim for temperatures between 50 and 80 degrees, out of sunshine and wind) light sprays about a foot away. You only need two light coats of primer. Let it dry completely.

-Use light coats until you have full coverage of the top and sides of the tray
-Let it dry completely
-Screw the umbrella on top and the clamp on the bottom and place tray on top off planter
-Use planter for fun storage
Here's how the umbrella stays in the tray. It just unscrews right above the clamp.
I think I'll use a dowel and a little round piece of wood I'll cut out on the scrollsaw to make a plug for when we don't need the umbrella!
