When a friend sent me a picture of a Restoration Hardware inspired dining table from Shanty to Chic and asked if I could recreate it as a coffee table, I was up for the challange. After sketching up new plans to the measurements she needed, I came up with this and am thrilled with the finished piece...and so is she!
All lumber is knotty pine. I used pocket hole construction for most of it, but used my 16 guage nailer and glue to attach the angled pieces. I attached the table top with "z" clips, first cutting a slot with a biscuit joiner for the clip to slide into.
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
Stained in Minwax Jacobean and finished with Minwax Wipe-on Poly in Satin.
Recommended Skill Level
Intermediate
