Submitted by CoreyS on Mon, 01/09/2012 - 18:16

I built this coffee table for my wife for christmas, it came out really nice. I didnt make it as wide to accomodate our living room space. the plans were really easy to follow and i had a lot of fun building this project. One thing i would recommend for this table is to get a plane of some kind to get all the planks flush with each other. For the legs i used cedar 4x4s because pine 4x4s are not available anywhere around me, that didnt matter too too much because i stained the table dark anyways. We are very happy with this table and thank you ana for such great plans to follow. now hopefully ana in her busy life will find time to post a farmhouse tallboy dresser from pottery barn to match our farmhouse bedside tables
