DIY Plank Wood Coffee Table
We had been on the hunt for the prefect coffee table for so long and decided that since we couldn’t agree on anything, the best (and most rewarding) thing to do would be to make one ourselves!
We bought an old growth hardwood plank from a favourite local antique store and re-used metal hairpin legs from another table we had.
These type of legs work perfect for any DIY project and are widely available on the internet. By just screwing them into each corner we created the perfect coffee table with lots of character! And it was so easy! Now we just need a rug to ground the space and onto the decorating!
But something tells me this isn’t the last of dabbling into furniture design.

i LOVE hairpin legs. fabulous job you two! so fun reading about the changes you’re making to your house. HOME.SWEET.HOME.
this is what my husband and I wanted to do! But your piece of wood is so beautiful!
Very cool! I am always inspired when I read your blog. Can’t wait for an update on the room you’re fixing up right now!
This is perfect. You have just saved our old fir countertop from a lesser future!
Looks great! I’ve been in search of the perfect coffee table for years and yours just offered up some great inspiration.
Great idea D & V. Looks awesome with the white floors!
It looks beautiful! How did you treat the wood to get that finish?
Hi Joan!
It’s actually reclaimed wood, so it already has a nice and old natural finish. :)
I adore these hairpin legs with their upturned feet. Where can I buy these? I’ve trawled the internet but have not had any luck. Can you point me in the right direction please?
Try places like ebay or googling “metal hairpin legs” – I remember seeing a few places online but don’t remember the shops. Ebay usually has a few of them!
Hope that helps! :)
