Savvy mum transforms dining room by chopping up her table and using bargains from The Range and eBay
WHEN it comes to furnishing your home, it's only natural to want to buy a dining table big enough to fit all your nearest and dearest around.
There's just one small problem: we hardly ever have all our extended family under one roof.
Well if you've also made this easy mistake, one savvy mum has revealed how you can repurpose your dining room table to better suit your home - and it looks super chic too.
Posting on the Facebook group , the DIY fan explained how she was bored of her enormous dining table - especially with five kids in the house.
Rather than forking out for a smaller table, the woman wrote: "So I had this crazy idea to cut my old six seat dining table in half - and I have to say, I'm pleased with how it turned out."
The mum simply cut the table down the middle and screwed it into the walls to make a corner dining area.

Taking notes for her own home, a third raved: "OMG it looks wicked it gives you so much space!
"I have a big table like you and it takes up a room what I was looking to get was an extendable table but I think that's a brilliant idea."
