DIY Coffee Table with IKEA Salad Bowls 🥗

[@jessicatredway3760]

Another tip that might help with stability and weight distribution would be to fill those bowls or half fill them with like sand or cement so it's heavy and not easy to flip the table

[@salmasayed5274]

This makes them more prone to open tho

[@noraa2635]

I shouldn't flip unless you sit on it. The bowls have a flat bottom too.

[@hanawolfgang]

You should suggest this before he completes this project

[@mehere337]

Great, then it's more difficult to move the table when you need to.

[@Ms.Kelani]

DO NOT DO THIS. 1.) it’s a mess waiting to happen. 2.) Furniture is meant to be movable.

[@JadeCanada237]

How do you even think of this? I have never looked at an IKEA bowl and said "hey coffee table" Amazing!

[@catiegrace5792]

Ha ha ha

[@Demi1369]

Lol! I know what you mean. But he probably saw some inspiration photos of coffee tables or saw some in real life with similar designs and then thought of what he can get for cheap to recreate the inspiration. You’ve always gotta think what cheap materials are out there with similar enough shapes. Once you recreate someone’s DIY or do some yourself, you’ll probably start getting the hang of it. ☺️💕

[@paulincia27]

Litteraly 😂😂 i wish!

[@SuLolly2]

My sentiments exactly! Who thinks of these things? "Oh right. I'll just turn these wooden bowls into cofeee table legs!" Wonder why I didn't think of that.😮🤪

[@taushapurcell1732]

It was on the drew barrymore show. They did this exact same thing on there. I’m guessing that’s how. 😂

[@Rebecca-zw4pm]

Drew, you are so talented! I have loved your work for a very long time, but lately you have been on a major artistic ROLL!! This table looks so gorgeous. 🥰🥰🥰

[@nopipapadopoulou3633]

I looove dark wood! Its all time classic and gives so much warmth to a room..

[@nostalgisity]

Man I love you!!! I don’t care if a better, smarter, more polished influencer comes in.. hands down, you are the most resourceful & authentic design & DIY human on this planet. Way to go 🙌🏻

[@shriyareddy5617]

Your creativity is off the charts!

[@sharinashields1327]

Yes, I don't know who would think to use bowls like this! Not me. The table came out simply stunning. 😍😊🙌🏾

[@kathymcfarland5516]

Ingenious! Love that base! I used to think I was creative, but NOT LIKE THIS! LOVE YOUR BRAIN!

[@gayathrivadivelu5432]

I love love this! So talented this guy is!

[@WIllTheMackem]

I love everything about this. The creativity, the shaping, the thrifty stuff, and the simplicity of the explanation. Even if I had zero knowledge of any DIY beforehand, I could follow this and get a great result. ❤

[@carolineharris2620]

Perfect example of high low decorating!!

[@genericamerican7574]

Just under $200 is thrifty? 😩

[@jamesmills6766]

Cool idea, you can buy bamboo wood plywood sheets if you wanted to match the bowls with the same timber

[@mala890]

You did it again, Drew. Fantastic!!!❤❤❤

[@stephanipobst]

Wow!!! I’m loving this table. You are so creative!

[@jodievukmir3187]

WHOAAAA....CRAZY AMAZING!! Absolute genius!! As per usual for Drew. So talented!!

[@deborahlehman8617]

Oh should have used a birch laminate plywood it would have looked so much better Drew, those balls came out beautiful!

[@forgiven213]

Agreed! The plywood portion is killing me 🥴

Hi Andrew! You are simply the best. Love your style.

[@sugarhill0627]

You and becki owens are my TOP faves. Straight genius when it comes to design, contrast. You have such a good eye and such creativity! Inspiring ❤

[@joycestempa5647]

Decoupage the top with natural raw fiber paper, lacquer it down and see if you can cut a glass top for it. The plywood surface even though it’s painted a yummy dark color is not giving the best look when viewed from above. I did this too (different style) and this is how I fixed mine. The glass I used was recycled from a patio table (so it’s tempered). Just use LOTS of duct tape to brace it when cutting and cut just barely bigger because you need to sand the edges……. unless you want to use metal edging; like the cooper stuff used for making stained glass window decor which is pliable and easily welds together with a soldering iron and can be glued (w/industrial strength adhesive) to the edges like banding. Alternative is, custom cut a raw stone slab from the remnants yard at your local stone mason shop.

[@bloomingflowersoflove]

Thank you Drew ❤ You inspire me 🏡 🎉

[@lindag.9429]

Wow! You never cease to amaze me.

[@TheShahkulu]

I've seen people use these bowls for making tables and I've been unimpressed with the results until I saw your video. This looks so good.

[@clairetremblay3023]

It's a beautiful idea. However, the top of the table need one or two other coats of varnish to make it wonderful. The actual finish look too rought right now.

[@_drivEN_]

Yeah, using stain prep helps this by filing pores so the finish is even

[@cececox6399]

Gotta love how there's ALWAYS someone negative in the comments. ☠️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ He comes up with his own ideas, seeks out the materials, many of which are obscure uncommon items, he then puts hours into making it and then hours filming his work, hours doing voice overs and adding pictures and text, hours editing all the work he filmed. AND he has to deal with all the issues that pop up while building it because EVERY project has those. He does ALL that work and you're in the comments being negative. Why don't YOU upload YOUR work. You CLEARLY know what you're talking about. ☠️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣

[@nonino1644]

Cheap is the word you’re looking for. 😅

[@nonino1644]

[@lindamoon4255]

Those bowls are beautiful!

[@Thomas-xt1ff]

OMG, this is marvelous. One of the most beautiful coffee tables I've ever seen. Great idea.😊

[@csm92459]

You could have added iron on veneer edge banding to get rid of the striped edge of the plywood.

[@morganholmes3977]

The table turned out beautifully! Great job!

[@meaghancallahan9732]

I love your style! So elegant

[@eiosti]

Nice aesthetic, tho I would've filled the bowls with something to make it a bit more sturdy, maybe added some dowels or something as well??

[@khalaska907]

Now, this is one of the coolest things I've seen. Love it! 😍

Love Fox! Your ideas are other wordly!!🎉❤

[@wallihaley5194]

I love it! So creative!

[@kathienewman4877]

Totally beautiful!!!! To make it even more elegant could you cover the top with glass the shape of your table? Would look like a table I saw for 2,309.00 in Florida ! Good luck! I feel you could really do very well as selling your tables in the future as a side business. You are truly great with this! From Florida🌴♥️

When cutting plywood, or any other wood, use painters tape to keep it from splintering. Love it btw😍

[@marigoldtrimborn697]

You should put a clear apoxy on it!! Just to smooth it out so it doesn’t look like plywood ❤❤❤ LOVE THIS IDEA ❤❤🎉🎉

[@AndriaBobbles]

Beyond stunning, such a unique idea & worked so perfectly! I guess you could add sand into the bottom bowl or pot even if you wanna mix the feet up atyle wise to help with weight distribution depending on size of table top too, but given that it's a lovely low coffee table it doesn't need that! So so creative, love it ❤
