DIY coffee table

I wanted to make a coffee table that is not too expensive but looks beautiful. I bought bamboo fencing and a timber panel top and got a heavy-duty cardboard roll for free.

I saw the cardboard roll into three pieces.

And planned how I would place the table legs.

I used liquid nails to stick the cardboard rolls together and used clear tape overnight to make sure they stick and don't move. After that, I cut the bamboo fencing into smaller pieces and glued them to the table leg.

When the table leg was all covered with bamboo I let it dry overnight and added the timber top using liquid nails.

Here is the final coffee table.
