How I Built The Folsom Coffee Table For Less

Ever see a piece of furniture you absolutely love but then see the price and wonder if it’s worth re-mortgaging your house for just to have your kids (or pet) mark it up with boogers or whatever they ate for breakfast last week? I have and its name was Folsom by Pottery Barn and it had a price tag of $1900! You know how many eggs I could buy in today’s market for that price? 5,277…that’s how many eggs (I did the math)! With that said, I still wanted a coffee table like the Folsom but for a fraction of the cost - think the price of 1388 eggs ( that sounds insane but realistically, my goal is around $500). So let’s dive into it!

Thank you so much! Glad you like it!

Thanks for the idea. I was able to carry out my plan to build a sofa table. I’m really happy with the result. I used hardwood instead which made it really heavy.

How did you make it look so seamless? Did you put veneer all around and inside? I watched the video a few times but not sure I understand that part.

64 mitres! the middle is 3/4in plywood like the outside. There are 16 pieces in total ( excluding the interior frame). I have a highlight saved on my instagram showing the process more (FromHouseToHomeDIY)
