Wondering what to do with all of those stale baguettes? Well, if you were an artist looking to make a statement about food waste, you might construct a Baguette Table like the ones seen here by Studio Gyalik. Using some past-due pieces of the long French bread, they were cut to varying lengths to create a bread-based flat top and legs for stability.

As mentioned, the Baguette Tables were created to call attention to food waste — specifically Vienna. Someone should just teach them how to make bread crumbs. Cool tables though.

Champagne Cork Table

Need somewhere to rest your Cristal, or Cold Duck? The Giant Champagne Cork Table will not only keep your fizzy wine in place, but will show your guests that you take your champagne seriously — even if the same can’t be said about your home décor.

Superbly made of solid fine quality Portuguese cork, it serves as a stool, an end table, flanked beneath a glass top to create a cocktail table.

The PicNYC Table Will Get You Closer To Nature

The problem with ordinary picnic tables — they’re actually the opposite of having a picnic. But the grass-covered picNYC Table, by Haiko Cornelissen, will get you as close to nature as possible — since you’d usually put something between your food and the ground at a real picnic.
