Gorgeous Table Centrepiece
Reclaimed stone troughs can be truly stunning table centrepieces if filled with the perfect ingredients. Because they are hard-wearing and steady, you can fill the troughs with a multitude of items, allowing you to change the centrepiece theme as and when you please. For example, you could choose to fill the troughs with flameless candles and garnish with fake flower stems for a rustic feel, or attach fairy lights to the reclaimed stone trough for a beautiful effect. Your imagination is your only limit when it comes to producing gorgeous table centrepieces sure to delight all your visitors.

A traditional way to use reclaimed stone troughs is to make the trough into a flower planter. They make fantastic alternatives to potted plants or flowerbeds as they are very easy to use and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, ensuring that a trough will be out there that already suits your specific requirements. If you are seeking a way to rejuvenate a room, installing a reclaimed trough planter is a surefire way to achieve a fresh and stylish feeling.
Garden architecture
The most obvious location for a reclaimed stone trough is in the garden. Originally crafted to be used outside, you won’t need to worry about your trough struggling against the elements or wearing down over time. Your reclaimed stone trough could be added to your existing garden architecture easily. You will have to make sure that there is a suitable drainage system in place to make sure that a build up of water does not hinder your enjoyment on the reclaimed trough.
