I had some window screens that I was going to throw out, because they didn’t fit my 1965 oddball-sized windows. I had bought for $1 each at a salvage store called Shep’s, and thought of using them for lego mats. They are lightweight, and they can be picked up easily, or slid under furniture when needed. They have just enough lip to keep the base plates on the screen. Works great!Jeanetta A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07727852841506124962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-14102030271078024402018-07-27T16:19:44.474-04:002018-07-27T16:19:44.474-04:00Thank you for the brilliant idea!Thank you for the brilliant idea!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14023921290224763876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-42931029721521604022013-04-22T08:06:23.026-04:002013-04-22T08:06:23.026-04:00YOU ARE BRILLIANT!!!!

You also mentioned that you had it cut to 30X30...did this also account for the trim, or did trim sit on the base, like a little ledge. I know there's a name for that, I just don't know it?? Countersink, perhaps? Just wondering if you needed to account for that measurement when ordering the wood. Also how thick was the wood you got? Was it like plywood?<br />Wild n' Crazy Mommasitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11813802164272003523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-42461222579936579632013-03-15T00:29:47.618-04:002013-03-15T00:29:47.618-04:00i love this idea, almost as much as i'm loving...i love this idea, almost as much as i'm loving ur couch, pillow, and dishes... do u mind saying where u got them?

We had _the_ Lego table, and both our daughter and son played on it. (Sometimes together, even.) Our kids are now 20 and 24, and every once in a while they still pull out a tub and have a Lego fest.<br /><br />As one of the earlier posters said, we have at least one college education's worth of Legos. Wouldn't trade any of those little bricks for anything. They're expensive, but the creativity they foster is worth every penny.mckeer19https://www.blogger.com/profile/07509697651451743047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-14950331134416828772013-03-13T01:06:35.116-04:002013-03-13T01:06:35.116-04:00What a good idea!

I like how that tray is so functional but also looks so cute! We aren't into Legos over here...YET. Both my kids love those big blocks though, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time. That is CRAZY that your son could do 600+ sets at 4! What a smartie! Again, love your table!

I totally reorganized our Lego collections this Christmas. (My Christmas gift was storage!) I used Ikea Trofast frames and shallow drawers with labels. And we used the 8 cube Expedit with desk so that we have a boy Lego table and a girl Lego table! The short table just wouldn't accomodate boy and girl sets together, and my kids were so tall they couldn't get their legs under the table anymore. I would show you pictures, but I don't have a blog. I'd rather read 'em than write 'em!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584931999590532413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-39844342729326947702013-03-12T21:45:28.205-04:002013-03-12T21:45:28.205-04:00OH.

It was a huge hit! We did glue the Lego mats down because that's the only thing they will use the tray for & with 2 little guys, it had to be sturdy. The handles are such a great idea, too. It's a great keepsake from Grandpa, too.
