DIY COFFEE TABLE Using Plaster | $0 Modern Coffee Table DIY

Today I'm DIYing a 3 leg round coffee table, using plaster.
You are going to love this DIY coffee table - it's easy, it's budget friendly and it looks so modern and high end!
This modern coffee table turned out so good, and it costed me almost $0.
This is a DIY project I’ve been dying to make, and today I’m finally doing it!
I stumbled upon a modern coffee table on Pinterest, and I fell in love! Since it was somewhere around $3000, I decided to try and recreate it for way less.
And it turned out I can recreate it for free (at least close to free).
To make this coffee table you are going to need a few things.
4 cardboard concrete forms, or some sort of cylinder cardboards for the legs (maybe even plastic plumping pipes).
Also, you are going to need something as a tabletop.
You can of course do it with cardboard too, however I am doing it out of a round piece of plywood.
Also you'll need a lot of plaster.
Head on to the video to see exactly how I did it!

[@chefluigishatara]

I forgot a tip you can use…a drywall sponge 🧽 wet it with water and that helps to smooth out the surface of the plaster. It’s a gem

[@HomeByMon]

Oh yes! That's such a great tip, will try it next time 🤗

[@samarabevin]

Yes this saved my life on building my Santorini look alike concrete seat!! I remember your comment and literally saved my project! Even after the stucco dried, I just added water and the sponge and reshaped the surface texture!

[@chefluigishatara]

I’m so glad that it helped!!! 🤗

Aww thank you so much 🥹🥰 I really appreciate it 🫶

[@martinadobiasova7265]

I must say I didn't believe it will be this nice. It is not my style, but it turns out really well. Maybe some color between dark brown/beige will suit it better.

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much! ☺️💕 i am so glad you like it!! Yes, beige is one of my options, but we'll see ✨

[@chefluigishatara]

Girl I’m doing this I needed a coffee table and I’m like I used to work for a drywall contractor I’m taking all his tools to do this 😂❤

[@HomeByMon]

Hahaha 🤗 Do it girl! You got this! Let me know how it turned out!! Also, going back to it, I would add mesh tape to the legs too 😅

[@chefluigishatara]

@@HomeByMon yes, the mesh tape is a savior and you can add the spray glue before you apply mesh tape it won’t disturb the mixture. 🥰 will definitely let you know how my table turns out ✨

[@HomeByMon]

@@chefluigishatara haven't thought of that one, and that's actually so smart! Will try it out, since I'm planning another table/ikea hack/plaster project 😊💕

[@chefluigishatara]

@@HomeByMon yes definitely☺️ do that you got this! can’t wait to see the next video you post with this hack.

[@monikam4548]

Love this! I'm trying it out this weekend. Can you tell me how long does it take for the plaster to dry out? Thanks so much!

[@HomeByMon]

For the first coat it was 1 hour, but for the second one I left it to dry out overnight ☺

[@vivianabalda5830]

I love all your DYI, how do you make the plaster? What material do you buy? Thanks a lot 🙏 I was planning to do this long time ago and I have already some cardboard cilinder from pringles 😂but I couldn’t find any good tutorials like yours

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy you like my videos 🥰 And pringles cylinders is just so genius! I usually use plaster of Paris. The ratio for plaster vs water is 1:1. I usually add the water first and then stir in the plaster until I like the consistency ☺

[@helenfares5409]

[@Senu461]

When I saw you whip out that hot glue I could tell you got faith! Def subbed lol

[@HomeByMon]

Hahahahahaha 🤣🥰💞 Thank you!!!

[@HomeByMon]

Thanks 🥰

[@maryiatalkachova8786]

Looks great! Love it. I have only one question: how do you mix you plaster?

[@HomeByMon]

So glad you like it 🥰 The ration for plaster:water is 1:1 however, I usually add the water first and then stir in the plaster until I like the consistency ☺️

[@tiffanywebb5739]

How does the plaster hold up to water stains, etc.?

[@HomeByMon]

It holds well, since I ended up painting it with water resistant acrylic paint. The plaster stained so bad 🥺

[@carolinab.p.9380]

Hi. What about your knee? A bike accident? Hope you are better know 😊🙏. Your DIY coffee table is fantastic!! I love it!!!! 😍 Congratulations!!! ☺👏👏👏 And Mars is soooooo cute!! 🥰♥️🐕

[@HomeByMon]

Hahaha yes, it's a bike accident 😅 and it's so much better now 🤗 I was trying too hard to keep it out of focus, it was so ugly 🤣 I am so glad you like the coffee table!! ❤️❤️❤️ Sending virtual hugs 🤗

[@carolinab.p.9380]

@@HomeByMon Hi. I didn't see your answer before. Sorry. Great to know you are better now!!! ☺👏👏👏 Be more careful next time, please!!! 🚲😊😂👍 Now will watch your new video!!! Sending virtual hugs too. 🥰♥️

You are so talented! Great job!

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much!! 🥰

[@rachellaurice4610]

Where did you get the plaster from!

[@HomeByMon]

I got the plaster from a local store that sells all kinds of building and painting materials 😊 You can find one at home depot, or even on Amazon 💕

[@SympathyForTheDevil9]

Hey there! Would you share a honest review of your table after 1 year of use? Did it hold well or dit it crack / chipped easily? What about the color, did it remain in this nice color or did the color from the table below started to show after a while? I'd love to do this DIY but I want to make sure I'm building something durable :)

[@HomeByMon]

Hi, after a year, I have to say the legs have cracked a bit. However, I don't think this would have happened if I added the mesh tape on them too, as I did for the tabletop. The tabletop is in perfect condition 🙌 Now, for the color, I painted it and sealed it after all, since it ended up having coffee stains on it. So definitely have that in mind, if you want it to be durable, you'll have to at least protect it with a clear coat. I've seen people adding glass on top, which also looks so nice. Hope I helped ☺

[@SympathyForTheDevil9]

Hey thank you so much! I realized that other people asked already about the finish. Thank you :) @@HomeByMon

[@youkywu]

Hi there! Can I ask what kind of paint you used (acrylic or latex) and what sealer on top??

[@joshuagonzalez3284]

How much plaster did you end up using?

[@HomeByMon]

I think I used 1 bag of 2kg. But it may have been more :)

[@jocelyneferrando3008]

Bonjour, où trouvez les pieds de la table et quelle produit que vous envoyez sur la table et les pieds ? Merci

[@HomeByMon]

I am sorry, I don't really understand 😥 Could you do English 💕

[@jocelyneferrando3008]

Pouvez-vous me répondre pour savoir quel produit vous utilisez sur la table et les pieds?

[@isabelasouza8999]

She’s asking what products you used for the table and legs, which you mentioned to be plaster

[@isabelasouza8999]

You can find everything you need for this project in a home improvement store or hardware store maybe

[@HomeByMon]

@@isabelasouza8999 Thank you so much for helping out! ☺️💕

[@gemed77]

Did you have to seal this?

[@HomeByMon]

Yes, I had to do it in the end, because it got stains pretty easily ☺️
