Looks beautiful but I cannot speak to how well it will hold up in the outdoor elements.  IMO the manner in which the top half is connected to the bottom is a bit unstable but I was able to reinforce that fairly easily, however, I also do not yet know how that connection will hold up in the wind/elements.  Plenty of glitter left on the floor in the area I put it together but I kind of figure that comes with the territory.  Overall I am quite optimistic that I will be sufficiently satisfied over the long term.
