Make a coffee table yourself

For a start, we take an unnecessary frame with you and clean it. When finding that the old glass has cracks, you will need to insert a new one (so that the table is strong). If, as a result, everything is in order, we remove all possible layers of old paint from the frame, then use sandpaper for aligning the surface. After that, with the help of a screwdriver, or the screwdriver remove all metal angles of the frame.

We apply an acrylic paint on the frame, or a white enamel. When choosing the 1st option, after drying, we will pass emery paper - it is necessary to achieve a beautiful effect effect. So, as we create a "marine" table, as a main kolker, we will use white and blue colors. In 1 layer, we paint the frame in blue, then apply white paint (2nd layer). After drying, for the manifestation of blue paint, three of its sandpaper.

The next step will be the creation of legs. We take the harvested cuttings and saws on four identical parts. Each length should be about 34-35 cm. We process all the blanks of the sandpaper.

We saw the cutting boards long in 7-8 cm and identically width of your frame. Then the surface of the base of the table of the table (from paragraph 3) is also processed by the sandpaper.

• To secure the legs on the window frame, we make the necessary marks in four places and in any one, for better fixation and drill, create these holes.

• We attach each of the legs to the basis of the workpiece, we use long screws.

• With the help of the same screws, we screw our finished legs directly to the frame.

• Hot glue attaching the rope so that it is powered by them.

• Purchase and degrease the frame glass on both sides.
• We post on our glass various "maritime" figures and everything else that your taste is suitable for this topic. We carry out the impression of their smooth flow from one corner of the table to another. The volume of baubles should decrease.
• With the help of transparent glue, we attach the figurines to the glass.

• Book in a specialized location to make glass in 4 mm, total sizes by 1.5-2 cm less on each side than the frame itself.
• In each corner, ask to make holes with a diameter of 4 mm.
• We wipe the glass and cover it with a table.
• As a lining under the washers, we use carved rubber pieces, or skin.
• Self-plugs fix the glass on the surface of the frame. Be careful and careful that the glass is not cracked;

• At one end of the thick twine, we make a loop equal to 1/2 of the length of the entire table.
• With the help of a hot pistol, a rope, folded by half glit from the center of the long side of the table to its edge.
• The loop itself should just hang out so that you can then make a node.
• We continue to glue a long end of the rope all over the perimeter of our glass.
• Then, having reached the loop itself, we felt the end of the rope into it, so that the naval node was formed.
• Stretch the twin twine in the opposite direction and also glue;

The final step in creating our furniture masterpiece will be the process of decorating an external corner of the coffee table, (on where everything is all located on our figures). Create a certain continuation of the entire composition and place additional items, so that they create the effect of the stacking from the table leg directly under the glass of the table top.

Creating things, and especially furniture - the process is quite time-consuming, but very useful and interesting. We will be glad if everything happens in your target. And let this "maritime" table always remind you of a light summer breeze.
