DIY Coffee Table
There are many extremely expensive coffee tables out there, but the best way to get a beautiful and unique looking coffee table is to make one. Be sure to visit our website at cookwoods.com to find the perfect slab of wood for your coffee table. After, ensuring that the piece of wood is sealed and protected from any problems that may arise after completing the table, it’s time to attach the legs. For the legs, you can either choose slim wooden legs that splay out slightly, or metal legs to give your coffee table a bit of an edgier look. There are many websites that sell these types of legs, so look online to find something that fits your piece of wood well. Screw the legs in tight and set your new statement piece in your living room. Simple!
DIY Side Table
Another great option for an addition to your home, and a matching piece to your new coffee table, is to create a smaller version of your coffee table. If you like having mismatching pieces of wood, you could choose a nice walnut for one and a beautiful Maple burl slab for the other. Choose a smaller piece and perform the same steps for the side table as the coffee table.
Art Pieces
Another great way to bring the outdoors inside is to feature a piece of wood on your wall as a work of art. After all, wood is nature’s art! Place a smaller piece of wood on a shelf or hang it like a traditional piece of art. Add a couple of nails to the back of the wood and string a wire between the two nails for support.
Though there are plenty of beautiful ways to add the outdoors to your living room and home, but we recommend these three pieces of furniture for a great way to update your room.
