DIY JAPANDI COFFEE TABLE: STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL

For this DIY Japandi coffee table project, we’ve opted for unfinished wood which has visible traces of the original tree. For this DIY rustic piece, we recommend using light wood—we’ve used ash for the top and acacia for the legs. You can also choose from the wide range of wood types available on our website, including pine, oak and poplar.
