I have seen those before and seen others using them. One think I would suggest if you plan to use them is to clamp/clip them down to your table well. It's horrible when they get blown with a sudden gust.

I can't imagine what it would cost me to get them here....  :jealous:

Thanks - I wasn't expecting anything particularly robust for the price, but space is so tight here the fact it folds was the biggie. Perhaps could be painted/distressed to look old

Thanks for sharing this.  :buttrf: :buttrf: :buttrf:
I have been looking for something for a long time. When you get the delivery pls let us know if it is strong enough to hold soaps.

came today and I'm pretty impressed for the price. Will post pics tomorrow if I have time. Easily sturdy enough to hold soap and jars. The wood is VERY light - which is good from a carrying perspective. I would think it was robust enough to stand up indoors, but would need anchoring outdoors for sure

sorry I saw your message after I took the pic

some random products

it would benefit perhaps from something on top of the slats to make a solid surface, but otherwise I'm delighted

Wow , that looks good.  :buttrf: :buttrf:

Thanks for posting the pic. After my car thing is sorted out , this is the first thing I am buying. 

What about card paper over the shelf, I would use that, or a piece of cardboard cut out  on the shelf so that the soaps don't fall through.

I love your labelling, neat simple black and white.  :buttrf:

Oh yes, that looks really brilliant!!  I see what you mean about the slats, but that's something I am sure would be easy to get around.  How perfect though!!  It looks like it would sit beautifully on a table and really create some impact.  What a good buy!!!  :)

It looks like it will do the job nicely  :) would have been perfect for me too but I had a look and sadly they don't deliver to Scottish islands  :(
