Spruce up your deck with a clever DIY patio table that also keeps drinks cool and within arms reach. Alternatively, you can hack a picnic table with a gutter to hold the drinks, but this is a more attractive solution.


If you do a lot of backyard entertaining, have the space to accommodate an average size picnic table, and happen to be pretty handy with power tools, then this DIY might be right up your alley! The plastic inset planters become your ice bins, but the best part is, there are lids that hide the cooler holes in the table so if you're not using them, you can cover them for extra table space.
