Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @maggievee. It's terrific to have you join us and many thanks for sharing your project.

What a creative way to give an old piano a second life. The mosaic finish is a real standout and turns it into a unique feature piece that suits your outdoor entertaining area beautifully. I can imagine it would look especially magical once the fairy lights come on in the evening.

Thanks again for sharing your project with the community. I'm sure it'll inspire plenty of members to look at old furniture in a whole new way. I'd also love to hear whether you have any tips for others considering a similar project.
