So we made this DIY coffee table before we ever started a blog and YouTube channel.  As usual, we saw this out shopping (World Market) and decided we could Make It!  This coffee table is SUPER durable for kids and families.  Our kids aren't toddlers anymore, but still tend to sit on this table like it's a bench!  We originally made this table last year, since then we have made LOTS of pieces for our family room and decided the stain color no longer matched.  We took it apart, rebuilt it and stained with Varathane's Briarsmoke, now its durable and looks beautiful in our room!   We found these plans from Jaime Costiglio's Blog.  Here's how we made ours!
