Ashtray stands at Wal-Mart

Wal-Mart right now is selling these great little stands for $33. I bought one for my front porch, and some for the cigar shop I work at. They are the perfect size for a round ashtray (like the stinky for instance), and are the perfect height for setting next to a chair. Thought I'd let everyone know!

If you're looking in the smoking section at WalMart for these, you won't find them there.

I've seen them in the furniture section, labeled as end tables.

I believe that they are turned from glued up blocks of wood (not from a big chunk right out of the log) with a dark stain to hide the grain mis-match.

To fit the tone of the thread, the WalMart stools/end tables/ash tray stands are a poorly disguised knock off (what else would you expect? ). The originals: Eames Walnut Stools

$750-799 if it is the Herman-Miller made Eames walnut stool

Love Eames, Panton......we have a mid-century modern home with modern and mid-century furniture throughout.

I saw them I thought they would be good to put a chess set on.. Didn't think of a stinky... Thanks for the idea.
